Senseless

I can smell you in my dreams
You walk in the moonlight wreathed in smoke
When the wind shifts, I can almost taste you
Your footsteps echo on the lonely road
If only I could walk that road with you...
Our steps matching rhythms making harmony
As I enfold myself in your scent
Sampling the salty sweetness of your kisses
While the fog envelops us both

Evening

As we sit,
Sharing drinks by the fire
I feel air
From your lungs
Wrap around the base
Of my tongue
It tastes bitter and sweet,
Hot and sour all at once
I plunge into the depths of your soul
I'm drowning
You rescue me from dying in your eyes
Only to die later
In your arms

You are my everything

My head has run out
Of rhymes, of time, of love
I no longer feel safe within myself
You feel my heart, my soul, my mind
My life is yours to do with as you wish
Blooms in May never smelled as sweet
as when smelled with with you
Birds sing sweeter when hear with you
Touch feels better when given by you
The sweetest dessert cannot compare to the taste of you eyes
You are my everything, my life, love my live, my passion
You are you
My all and everything

Bonded

Bonded

That feeling deep down in your soul

Which makes your life complete

The heart that makes your own heart whole

The taste that makes life so sweet

It rises up from deep within

To fill you up with light

No matter where you have been

It makes the whole world right

When you find the perfect thing

Grab it with both hands

Tie it up with golden strings

Give in to its demands

For you have found the perfect life

 There will be no more sorrow or strife

Taste

A taste is all you receive

Too much turns sour

Only a brief tease

Never enough

Only a shining moment

Burning so hot

Fire volcanic

Then burned out

Go before it is begun

Oh Candle,

Flame brightly!

But never seem

As though you

Have been lit

Dead Men

Trailing tongues of fire

Teasing, tantalizing, taunting

Taking me to soaring towers

Teach me your theories

I’ve had a taste

And it’s toxic

My traitorous tongue

Will tell tales

I’m tumbling on a tenuous thread

The tiniest tremor

Would topple me

This tryst

Is transcendent

Nothingness

No matter how much… I want

How much… I can feel

How… I can almost taste

It doesn’t matter

It is immaterial

A passing sensation

A momentary distraction

We all pass into nothingness

Should we try to overcome?

Try to surpass?

Try to better ourselves?

Whether we want to or not

We desire

We can feel

We do taste

We return to matter

We improve the material

Enjoy the sensations

Prolong the distractions

Before we become the nothingness

Look, Butterfly

Crystal visions of seeking

While the smoke hangs heavy in the air

Heads bob in the ether

Sour taste in my mouth

Can I taste it on yours?

Warm bodies press closer together

So nice, pressure

Wow, is that my hand?

It’s in yours

How did that happen?

Can we stay forever?

Moments are fleeting

Flittery little bugs that get away from us

If they would only hold still

Would you hold still?

Look a shooting star

Make a wish

Not, me I don’t have wishes

Wishes are for dreamers

Dreaming requires surrender

I don’t have enough ambition

To see me through those dark times

I can only rely on myself

Take what we have now

Don’t question it, just smile

And keeping watching the stars,

Look, another butterfly!
