Charm To Rejoin & Tear Asunder

Bring together what was stretched too far
     Whether by train or plane or car
Give strength and knowledge to get the job done
     The first step is over but the game's just begun
____________________________________

Send knowledge of future, of justice, outcome
     To the one who left tasks empty and undone
Will power is needed and a strong steady friend
      To help them acknowledge that this is the end
____________________________________

Two parties, opposite in goals and in means
     Their lifestyle seems idyllic almost sanguine
It's only a façade, behind a closed door
     Any time together feels like a bore
____________________________________

First, bring to her what she sees in herself
     Power and glory, wisdom and wealth 

Follow the song of the muse that she hears
     No longer chased by that what she fears

____________________________________

Then for him, growing patiently older,
       His request is the one that is the bolder
He must go to the point where they meet
     Follow his heart to the echoing beat

Decisions

Decisions

A fleeting ball of gossamer

Floats precariously on the wind

My soul’s sanity is dependant

On sticking a needle in

I’m no tower of strength

Built so tall and compelling

I’m not a font of love

There is no joy over welling

The line will end with me

Not drift infinite into space

It will never be the right time

The right person or the right place

Hopes are dashed here daily

Don’t come here to have your tears quenched

Truth cleans brighter then cleanser

Lesser emotions must be benched

So gird your loins and enter

Don’t be surprised when I say

I will not lose my center

There, at least, you have no say.

TOILM

TOILM

The crisp cold scent of morning,

As the steam rises from my mug.

My hands embracing

The one I love most.

No longer interested in coffee

My strength comes from somewhere new,

We rise and fall,

To the beat of our hearts,

Gently,

Then more rapidly,

Stars explode,

And a cup of coffee

Sits,

Cooling on a windowsill,

Forgotten

Dominion

Steel under Silk,

Strength below belies pretty promises.

I love you is a powerful spell

Make me believe.

The power of your spell,

Your power.

You certainly have dominion over me.

Do you have the authority

To control the world around us?

There is no right or wrong answer waiting,

Only green/bright here

Dilemmas arise,

How are they answered, love?

If there is a hunger; how is it met?

With a purely physical proposition,

Or is the answer

Only to wait,

To learn patience, politeness, probity?

Power

Going into a darkness unknowing

Stand up straight and tall

You shall be numbered among the fold

The circle is cast

The fire stands ready

If you have fear in your heart

The blade stands ready

Moving into the unknowing

The blade falls away

Courage fills the heart

Power rises up

Unity abounds

One
