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"

FadeAway

Brilliant binding buoys me
Bringing me back beneath your
Beauteous blue-green eyes
Everyone envies this eternal entete
Never noticing the keening and the noise
So they simply stay away
Absence and alone are real
Don't desert those who are dear
They need you most of all

Thaw

Thaw

A noise that starts off slowly

Imperceptible in the background

Slowly

Building

A bit of a crack in the distance

Then suddenly a thunderous roar

The sounds of the thaw

Permeate

Invade

Time has come to move forward

Spread out from winter’s grip

Its hold gradually lessens

Then

With a snap

It is over

The silence is deafening

Baffle

Baffle

Listen carefully on a quiet day

Turn toward the sound

You can hear the refrain

As angels echo the joyous song

But all we hear

Is the silence of forests

The singing of birds

Immeasurable bliss has been hushed

As we create

Our own cacophony

Covering creation

With our meaningless noise

Attempting to transcend

The apogee of the universe
