42

Season and reason pass away

Like feathers dancing in the wind

All time should hold a steady pace

Not join a race into the sun

The breakneck speed, intense, bucolic

As hearts and minds collide undone

The passing tide is rising fast

And waves approach full with intent

Then with a blow havoc rent

No life has truly ended

Time will soon make three from two

Creating love from hearts unbent

Power

Power

Keep calm and steady heads

Lest madness grow in our veins

For the world is free of reason

It infects the very soul

A swelling resonance erupts

It pounds and drums in time

Encroaching on everything

Our reason will set all free

They come now to topple us

With raised and steady arms

As we fall, together

Reason has swept the land

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

Comet

Oh my bright and burning star

Some would stay you’re falling

It’s just that you blaze so radiantly

The Earth has turned her back on you

You have a path, a steady course

Returning to give us bliss

Never altering your initial trail

Although we may not see its plan

Some may see a heart of ice

Some may see a trail of fire

I see a journey half completed

And the future yet to come

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

Wild Winds

Wild is the wind that whips the shore

And Beats the beach and sand

Rolling the riptide rises

The seas ever steady lure

It calls us to leave the land

Forces us to make compromises

Then returns us nary a favor

No matter how we command

We always know where the truth lies

Although the ocean is ours to savor

We fathom what it symbolizes

Supernova

Pressure

Not quick, fleeting

Long, steady, building

More than half again

What anyone should bear

Position of surrender

Means anything but

Tables turn

Power switches hands

Giver becomes taker

Shared power

Becomes more potent

And then eventually

Supernova

Stable

Call me dangerous, call me unstable

I’m tired of being called unable

I’ve always been a little bit crazy

Is this some happy ending like in a fable?

But I’m no longer letting it phase me

So what if no one thinks I’m ready

Are you looking for other reasons?

They’re not calling the shots here

It’s my party and I’ll cry if I want to

I’ll die if I want to

I don’t have anything left to fear

It’s the end of the season

I’m holding steady

I’m rocking like a baby in a cradle

I’m starting to feel more stable

I don’t know why things were so hazy

You make me feel so able

After all crazy is just a label

There’s nothing left but to love me baby

Beyond The Rainbow's End

‘Cause it’s time to stop running

I’ll just stand my ground

These circles I’m spinning in

Make me lose what I’ve found

Without my balance

I’ll just keep losing my way

My numerous talents

Get brushed simply away

A steady hand reaches out

The frantic spinning stops

My balance is restored now

The right side is back on top

Problems cease to exist now

My journey is at an end

Time’s rightful march continue on

Beyond the rainbow’s bend

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
