Passion

Passion
Playing, laughing,
And coming to hear,
Sounds in the darkness,
Sweet to my ear.
Intimate portraits
Of friends oh so near.
Never ending love.

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

A Conversation Revisited

Amor omnia vincit

Amor enim liberabit vos 

truth shall set you free

   Love in truth, Conquer to set captive hearts free

 Dilgio in veritas, Set ad vincere capta corda

Within

Within

Passion ignited by lust

Burns quickly and brightly

But never lasts for long

To sustain love, you need more

You need intimacy

More than carnal knowledge

To know each other

Inside and out

Without a touch

Without a word

Within

Hidden Key

Hidden Key

While we see The floating gossamer dreams elude and move away

They keep at bay From fairy dreams and flying free they change the mood

I must conclude That night will stop the endless day and sand will stop the sea

I now can see By waking dreams we all are wooed then time will pass away

If we stay Our passion’s freedom is the key to life pursued

And being shrewd It lights the path to show the way and shows to us the key

Beauty

Beauty

Beauty is not ephemeral.

Beauty is permanence, passion,

Fleeting moments do just that,

They fly away.

What matters is what stays.

The fire that burns,

Way down deep in your soul,

Too far down to be quieted or quenched

By an uncaring gaze.

In your memory, it will reside

Forever.

It lives in the collective unconscious.

Like a heartbeat;

Steady, Solid,

Undeniable,

It waits upon it’s time.

To question beauty,

Is to question one’s own self.

If you doubt what is real

Know only this,

The truth in beauty lies,

In knowing oneself.

If you do not take the time now

To know and love yourself,

You can never know love,

Or Beauty

Content

Flying high so close to the sun

The flames are burning higher

Enjoy your time of fun

The passion of a burning fire

Burns brightly and fervid in the mind

As long as pleasure never tires

Providing nourishment for the mind

Can counteract any ennui

Give partners time to unwind

No question about it, patience is key

We’ve heard it time and again

The love we share will keep us free

If this is not your ideal plan, call me friend

I’ll content myself with just that

I’ll rather be wanted then hated again

But once we were a lot of fun

We walked on tightrope wires

But as the years unwind

We’ve learned just to be

Even if our hearts will rend

I’ll content myself with that

Extinguished

Kiss me a thousand times

Let me feel your lips against mine

Hold me gently

Brush my hair back

With your elegant fingers

Light my way into the night

Spiraling even higher

Soaring on gossamer wings

Pulled into ecstasy

Burning with passion

Then

Extinguished

Twenty Four Hours of Passion

Moonlight plays across your cheeks

It makes you seem surreal

The barest touch of yours is electric

A little shock is all I need

It pulls me back to this plane

Where you didn’t really exist

A touch of fairy is needed

To bring me out of this funk

One whole day and one whole night

Twenty four hours of passion

That’s all I’m asking for

Proof positive that you exist

I believe you know the score

Unless I find my own two feet

A band of gold would be too much

But would be appreciated nonetheless

A Hallow Void

A hallow void

Fills my middle

Blotting out the sunlight

No amount of brightness

Can counteract the cold

A tiny beat that can’t cry out

A hand that cannot reach

I take a breath, control myself

It doesn’t matter, I can’t remember

Emotions are leverage, Emotions are passion

A bargaining chip

Serving only to harm (the only thing that matters)

Get rid of them (Without them we cease to be)

Excess baggage

The Consummate Youth

Age cannot touch

Time cannot ravage

Holding steady against

The winds of eternity

They are simply a force.

One that which is stopped

By a wall of passion.

The love found in your eyes

Belies your years

You will always be

The consummate youth

A stalwart rock,

Salvation

Without whom

The stars cease to be

The Winter Wind

The wind whispers willfully
Of ages long forgotten
Of princes and valor
Of passion and true love's kiss

The rapid wind tells today's torrenting tale
Of mercenaries and shame
Of sex, drugs and rock and roll

What will tomorrow's wind bring?
Will it sweep clean the plains?
Will it bring back the wonder?
I hope it brings the spring.
