To My Dark Love

Your hair is thick with chestnut curls
Your eyes with amber waves
I feel my life begin to whirl
I must be strong and brave
Adrift on unquiet endless seas
My mind begins to haze
The world is filled with a humming breeze
As time comes into phase
In your gaze, my eyes are caught
I fall and fall with grace
This lesson we all must need be taught
We will all find our place
Together the world seems all right
Falling in love in the dark of night

Sedeor

I want to go
Follow the way
Tempted to stray
Go with the flow
But here I sit
____________________________________

Today's not the day
I would know
And be ready to go
Not ready to quit
So still I sit

 ____________________________________

I've hit a new low
It's time to flit
I really must split
I no longer glow
But still I sit

____________________________________

Nomenclature

This thing called love turns us inside out
Flips worlds upside down
Holds us bound
While we scream and shout
And play the game out
Can be lost and found
This thing called love
____________________________________

This thing called love makes us doubt
No matter how devout
But we all come around
Come home safe and sound
With our hearts more stout
This thing called love

Follows

She walks in his footsteps in silence
No shadow does she cast
Her eyes hidden, gazing low
Her mind only on the next step
World weary and full of woe
Careful not to stray
Living only to serve him
Not broken but bent and bleeding
Random hurts from others they pass
Intended not to injure
They tear her down
Harming her beloved grieves her
Brings her so low
She falters as she walks
But still she follows

Spinning

Time moves so fast
The world goes past
It seems so vast
Still our love last
The World spins round
____________________________________

Our old friends fade
New ones are made
The same games played
None would I trade
The World spins round
____________________________________

Love has no flaws
Follows no laws
It gives us pause
As we grasp at straws
The World spins round ____________________________________

Counting

Mi Mancho
Caramente
Quotidianamente
piú di quanto le parole possano dire

____________________________________

Jeg savner des
Kjært
Daglig
Net ennord kan si

____________________________________

Ich vermiss Dich
Inniglich
Tagtäglich
Mehr als Worte sagen können

____________________________________

Te extraño
Extremadamente
Cotidiano
Másde lo air was palabras pueden decir

____________________________________

I miss you...
Dearly
Daily
More than words can say

Alone

Waiting between pains
Waiting between breaths
Wishing I was between your arms instead
The heat and cold alternate in waves
Tears fill my eyes
Sweat glistens on my brow
Tied in knots
Tongue-tied
So many ways to be tied
Trying to distract myself
Watching the horizon
If the sun comes
Then I have survived
One more night
One more day
Alone

Ditto

"I want to follow where you go"
Trail you through the dawn
All I can do is wait and trust
Even when I fall, I will rise
Perhaps this time, I will listen
The words are whispered and I intend to hear
No offer too obscure, This will leave my heart undeterred
A simple phrase repeating, "My soul is full"
Now it seems noises, hearts, dreams, and even time has stilled...
"Ditto"

Sign

I saw your reflection in the stars
It reached to me across the world
Traversing time and space
To fill the chasmous void

Your voice followed behind
Trailing like a comet's tail
Bringing home your words
A message without fail

The thunderclap fills my soul
Rumbling and rattling my mind
Containing all of your love
This is a heaven sent sign

Earthly Delights

The light of your eyes shines bright
When you spy me across the way
You make me feel so right
The way you coruscate
____________________________________

You take me to the highest height
With every word you say
This love I cannot fight
I'd follow you any where
____________________________________

When with you my soul's alight
I feel simply fay
I know that it will be alright
Under the hand of fate
____________________________________

Together there's nothing we cannot fight
We will always rule the day
Sharing in all earthly delights
You will always be there
____________________________________

Star Prince

Return to me my prince of stars
And clouds will clear the sky
I see you for who you truly are
____________________________________

Without you here, it seems bizarre
I won't you just give it a try
Return to me, my prince of stars
____________________________________

I can see your face from afar
You never could hide a lie
I see you for who you truly are
____________________________________

A message shows your avatar
Instead of a call now, so why?
Return to me, my prince of stars
____________________________________

You've tried your best our love to mar
But what we feel can never die
I see you for who you truly are
____________________________________

Now you return from so far
The loose ends begin to tie
Return to me, my prince of stars
I see you for who you truly are
____________________________________

One

Patches of skin
Tracing the patterns of old scars
A slow sinuous sharing of souls
Time seems to stop
As we lie together
My hands in your hair
Your hands everywhere
Dying
Languidly
As one

Needs..

I only want to be lying...
Lying on a beach
Lying on my side
Lying with you

I simply want to hold...
Hold hands during the toughest storms
Hold on for one more day
Hold you tight and never let go

I always will be...
Always be yours
Always be there
Always and forever, my love

Dawn

Cresting on the horizon
The beautiful orange, red and gold
The world breaks into view
Light imbues all it touches
Waking the world, making it feel bold

Brighter now and harsher
The light remove the dark dank spaces
There is no place to hide
The wide and luminous blaze
Has cleared the shadows from faces

Untitled 1252

My world begins and ends with you
You are my stars and sun and moon
Together there's nothing we cannot do
My world begins and ends with you
To you I cannot be untrue
For you my heart was hewn
My world begins and ends with you
You are my stars and sun and moon

Untitled #975

Slowly, I feel the fire burn down
In its heart, as small embers rattle round
Waiting for its proper time
The air, the wind, the fire
Searching through ash without tire
Who cares about a little grime

Suddenly a catch, a spark
A flame that is no longer dark
Flashing across now burning ground
Trapped by logs of timber steady
Placed there easily, conspicuous, and ready
The love encircled the flames all around
