Alive

 Inhala, exhala,

Siente tu pulso empezar a escala,

Inhala, exhala,

Entre nuestras almas comienza como un jalar

Inhala, exhala,

Mi conexión al mundo parece rala,

Inhala, exhala,

Esto es lo que significa, vivir.

Inhale, Exhale,

Feel your pulse begin to race,

Inhale, Exhale,

Between our souls it starts a pull,

Inhale, Exhale,

My connection to the world seems sparse,

Inhale, Exhale,

This is what it means, to live.

Truths

 Truths 

You've seen the naked truth of me

Haunting my days and nights

When the rain keeps me awake

Your arms encircle my waist

Our souls bears burdens together

When you leave to meet the dawn

My heart gently breaks

The world seems big and scary

I can only withstand the pain

Knowing you will be with be soon

The time slows to a standstill

As I await your presence

To reveal me once again

Forgiven

I'm not sure how much longer we two can wander
Two hearts, two souls bound halfway the world around
Not yet able or ready to be, if only we could foresee
The bumps in the pathway, the call at the end of the day
Balanced by goodness, purity and light, Knowing in our hearts what's wrong and what's right
These thing we sustain have grown weak, causing pain
Two things can be done to heal two hearts already won
The answers are easy, already written,
Drawn together, spoken, forgiven

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

Haunting

In a wave of memory
A scent drifts past me
I knew you couldn't quit it
I knew you couldn't quit me
Haunting me in bursts
Shame I thought of it first
I wish I could quit you
I wish I could quit this
Painful and joyful the same
I'm dying to call your name
I fall over and over for you
I fall each minute for you
Souls forever bound
In your heart I'm found

Frame

The columns frame the stars
As we share pieces of our souls
I heard the midnight bell toll
The sound seems so far

We stay safe where we are
Tucked in our little hole
With columns framing the stars
Sharing pieces of souls

I hear softly playing guitars
The night is almost controlled
Someday we will pay a toll
For taking our love way too far
When columns framed the stars

The World

Through your eyes I see your world…

I watch the people passing by,
                       I see reflected lights.
I see them stop and stare.
                       I watch your mind achieve new heights.

Through your heart I know the world.

                       Your patience and eagarness marks your soul.
You are calm, showed me how to care.
                       Your love makes it easier to find my own.
If all the world were you, no one would fear how I fear losing you.

With Eyes, and Hearts, and Hands we go through this world together.

Corona

A flash of Corona temporary blinds
The whole world lines those eyes
Uniting with ties, two souls entwined
Forever aligned and never to part
A fitting start to a blissful existence
No resistance is offered or needed
The love seeded needs no disguise
A fitting prize is the binding of minds

Sonnet #222

Sonnet  #222

Our time is fast at hand

We must approach with care

The time we have to share

When we’ll walk hand in hand

Along the golden sand

We’ll make a lovely pair

Of only life were fair

But things don’t go as planned

Restraint must rule the day

We find our center space

To wait and rule our souls

We keep our love at bay

Till in the proper place

Till then pain takes its toll

Descant

Descant

A counterpoint in harmony

A rhythm of the heart

You can’t pair a bass with a soprano

Or a contralto with a tenor

The harmonies must match

Then soar together to new heights

So too must souls match

Their jagged edges must meet

They fit together perfectly

But sometimes what is needed

Is a descant

That perfect little melody

That runs overtop of the song

Turns it inside out

But makes it so much better

Changes it all around

But the combination

Is beautiful

More Perfect Union

I can never be the better person

Remember that, love

When you are in your cups

In your grey hair

Hating me

As men grow to hate their wives

Time can’t stand

Something to last

Longer than it

Heaven forbade it

This more perfect union

A joining of souls

Better left asunder

Non- Lymericks

I once thought my love walked on air

But our relationship was going nowhere

Our flame burned much higher

When fueled by desire

We couldn’t stand our souls laid bare

Sorrow is grief born on wings

Like an arrow, it pierces and stings,

But time soon will heal

You’ll begin to feel

Your heart will begin to sing

Reaching Toward The Stars

Time is short

Let’s seize what we can

Some people’s tomorrow never come

It’s enough to live now

Have what we may

When the starlight reaches us

It may already be gone

It lives on through our memories

Infinity and divinity

Touches our small souls

Brief glimpses on the immortal

We beg and borrow

Never knowing where it will be snatched

If you wait

Tomorrow’s dream may disappear

Bring them love

Let them grow

Hand reaching toward the stars

Forged in Spirit

Souls Touch in the fire

Forged in spirit

Trials bring us together

Will banality part us?

Normal everyday life

Shall be the death of everything

All we’ve worked towards

All we ever wanted

We’ve both striven for the stars

Craved the universe

What good is a picket fence?

If there is no one

Left standing beside it?
