- After all the time of waiting,
- She finally came along
- But what had started out all right
- Was ending up all wrong.
- His family, they all loved her.
- So to keep things simplified,
- He courted her, although he knew
- She would never be his bride.
- Reckoning since they’d come this far
- They might as well go on.
- He hitched their wagon to a star
- But the harness wasn’t strong.
- The star grew a comet’s tail
- And forcefully pushed them through the air.
- The harness broke; the wagon tore loose
- And they both ended up Nowhere.

- I am not the love of your life.
- And neither are you, mine.
- Illusion is an outcast we both leave far behind.
- Now we dare embrace the reality we find.
- Holding you close is, for me, just enough
- Because you are the life of my love.
- I don’t see stars when your lips meet mine.
- When we kiss I don’t taste the sweetness of wine.
- There are no fireworks when our bodies entwine.
- Holding you close is, for me, just enough
- Because you are the life of my love.
- Your vision has opened a new world to me.
- You’ve unlocked a door and allowed me to see
- The stars in the heavens where God meant them to be.
- Holding you close is, for me, just enough
- Because you are the life of my love.
- I taste the passion in you whenever we kiss
- A taste full of desire that I can’t resist.
- And no other taste could be better than this.
- Holding you close is, for me, just enough
- Because you are the life of my love.
- I feel your power as our bodies entwine
- And the strength of your touch when your hand is in mine.
- Sheltered and safe is the feeling I find.
- Holding you close is, for me, just enough
- Because you are the life of my love.

- In the half-light of morning
- She struggles to lift the curtain
- Of Darkness from her eyes
- Daylight disguised by pillow of clouds
- That beckon her to sleep
- In hot liquid dreams
- That shimmer with heat.
- Tossed by waves of passion
- And embraced by lusty current
- She spirals down the whirlpool of life.
- Strong arms pull her safely to shore
- Caressed and aroused she awakens
- To the island of You.

- You stood by me as I walked a road I had not walked.
- You cleared the path ahead of us whenever it was blocked.
- You are the breeze that follows the storm.
- You make the air seem fresh and new.
- You are the sun that pierces the clouds
- And dries the teary dew.
- You gave me the chance to read a page I hadn’t read.
- When I couldn’t comprehend, you offered me the pen instead.
- You traded laughter for my tears
- When my whole world fell apart.
- For this and so much more my friend,
- I’ll keep you in my heart.

- Is there a word as yet
- Unknown,
- That precisely measures all I feel?
- Is there a phrase as yet
- Unturned,
- That can separate and categorize
- And make this dream seem real?
- Is there a note as yet
- Unsung,
- By bird or violin
- That could be voiced
- To define the point where feelings do begin?
- Is there a touch as yet
- Unfelt,
- That cools in fire and warms in snow?
- A steady hand to hold me fast
- In sweet streams where passions flow?
- Is peace to be found in passion,
- Serenity where thought and sensation unite?
- Beginning as two,
- Now coupled as one.
- Darkness to dawn.
- Day to twilight.

a simple site to hold my brightest memories and my darkest dreams. Most is poetry, some is prose… some is fact, most is fantasy. I’ll leave it to you to decide which is which...
