An unfinished poem... waiting for the autumn :)

 

The world breathes with me.

A deep filled peace, embracing

life with loves gentle hand.

Listening, the natural heart beats,

vibrating through naked feet

that dance beneath the trees of summer.

High above, their swaying tips ripple,

like waves upon an ancient sea, drifting

upon the currents of life,

a circle of beauty, the eagle soaring,

warmth beneath her wings in flight,

she dances in the heat of summer.

You never really asked me, but...

 

I'm missing you today, not always,

just when I'm lonely, when I'm afraid

and when I'm feeling down. I miss not having you around.

You never noticed me really, you weren't kind or loving particularly,

but your laughter made me smile, and forget just for a while.

Like everything was ok again...

and I could be a normal friend,

we could just enjoy a night out clubbing,

without all this reality bugging

me.

 

But I could never be that friend you see, because I have issues,

I have a disability.

My weather isn't always fair,

My mind isn't always there, with you.

It's back in a past I can't explain and that pain, is mixed up with today.

I can't share this with you, and truth being, you never really wanted me to..

So this is where we parted ways, you into some shiny day, and me -

well I just kept on going and... though you never asked,

I survived, I'm doing ok, beneath the sun at last. 

Love's Prayer

 

Let them flow, the rivers from your eyes

Let me feel the pain on which you rise

Let us swim in oceans deep

Let me hold you while you weep

Let us rise together in morning's mist

Let me touch your face or plant a kiss

Let me whisper lightly in your ear

To let you know that I am here

To show that you are not alone

For I was never truly gone
