Meaning

A certain amount of matter

And a little bit of mass

Have found themselves together

Just to process carbon gas

A transformation ever changing

But to the world, a different view

It passes in an instant

Unfettered and unskewed

The scars will heal so quickly

As is they had never been

The struggle to be heard

Above the maddening din

My Past

My past

A dark corridor

Is where eternity lies

Wrought with sorrow

Pain and Sighs,

You bright up my life in

Like the sun in mid June

Like the sky fills the moon

An illusion of an oasis

You go and disappear

The sorrow in my ribs

Again begins to sear

I guess I’ll never know

The treasure I have found

Until it disappears,

Without trace or sound

The light up ahead

Will guide me home

Never again shall I forget

Where I‘ve come from

Bound

Hands fast bound

Binding two hearts

Circles unending

Entwined evermore

Words exchanged

Merely placeholders

Carved on hearts

Promises made

The spell is disbursed

But never forgotten

All present are witness

To a singular miracle

Two joined as one

Love means...

Love means …

Knowing all your secrets

Reaching out and never doubting

That a hand will be there

That feeling in the pit of your stomach

Is only from nerves,

Never your love

Love is as steady as

The ground beneath my feet

The first flush of lust

Grows into a beautiful rose of romance

Constant as the North Star

A shelter in any storm

Our love will hold fast

Together we can conquer the world

It Was Never Better

It Was Never Better

Times long gone are better forgotten

Those long encumbered woes

Stales smells and dead horses

And pretty maids all in a row

Bowers of women who never dance

Waiting for men to pick them

Hoping for a match to further their houses

And children to be the next victim

On and on the cycle goes

Never ceasing never halting

When will right the world?

When will stop this faulting?

Women everywhere be proud of who you are

Stand, be brave and bold

One day you will be counted

Make sure you break the mold

Hope Chest

A hope chest standing empty

By the foot of the bed

Brings to mind

Times long ago

Loves of yesteryear

Forgotten

But not completely lost

We collect trinkets

To start a new life

But what if we never start over?

Never begin anew?

Is hope lost forever?

Or is it left sitting

In an empty chest

At the foot of the bed?

Allure

Look but never touch

See the unknowing

Things that are unavailable

Are the most desirable

Is it the unattainability

That makes them so desirable?

Are objects aware

Of their allure?

When thousands clamor

For one thing only?

If it were me,

I would quake in fear.
