Sacred. . .

As subtle as the softest whisper
Evening stars spill and linger
Their light like fireflies in the skyline
Illuminating the darkness and leaving me livid

Your name resounding louder, thoughts of you like pi, unending
Crossing and weaving into a symphony so transcending
Our lives intertwined, creating a union bound by friendship
Confusion dominates as I await life's release from this trance

The magic of this moment is the gift of the unknown
If this love is abysmal, then my perception must be dethroned
Reflecting through this blackhole of time leaves me void and stoic
Yearning for this to be real, as I take this leap of faith with my heart

Catch me unaware and dominate this plateau
Pulverise this reclusion like a demolition ball to a chateaux
Solitude yet my only companion, unfazed by my affinity
For something sacred that I feel is only a manifestation of my invention

Scared!

Scared!
To trust, to give in completely
Scared that in the end it will just be me in my zone
Lost, confused, hurt, torn, and all alone

Scared!
I won't live up to your expectations and dreams
Scared it will all fall apart at the seams
Not having the means to provide you with what you need

Scared!
I'll be jealous and drive you insane
Scared you'll start to look at me like I'm some sort of pain
Stumbling over my words, not knowing what to say

Scared!
To be in pain again, although what I feel is real
Scared to believe in the possibility that I found my kindred soul
Who seems to have made my half my whole

Eternity. . . (Mary Jane)

I blink and night falls
My eyes, glazed, find their focus
On an image. . . only I can see 

Time and distance lose their foothold 
All life fades into mist 
Over aeons, my soul is set free 

No words need to be spoken 
No feelings need to be shared 
We merge, mind with beautiful mind 

Drawn, inexorably, together 
By the timeless grip of eternity
This emotion or whatever I feel has me bound

Dark Clouds

Dark clouds, soft breeze  
The promise of rain reminds me that nothing is promised 
With each drop our love fades 
Just like a floating leaf having no direction in movement

Like the thunder that follows the storm 
We seem not to hear each other anymore
Our love has been replaced by lightening strikes of pain 
The arguments droning out the beautiful symphony 

With each tear I fade away scared  
We have become mundane with each strike being calculated
I seek that warmth in another's arms to only be reminded of you 
Penance I feel paid yet your blessing I can't have 

Feel bound yet free 
Alone yet comforted 
Waiting on the sun to give me direction and purpose
For my deep roots need to be fulfilled not just by rain.

Yesterday. . .

Yesterday
After 12 was before 6
Today Musiq brings me tears...

Yesterday
Good times reflected in my eyes
Today memories of you undulate in my brow...

Yesterday
There was harmony of two souls
Today the mobocracy won't fade away...

Yesterday
Your laugh was manifested
Today your anger resonates my helix...

Yesterday
Our path was radiated with hugs
Today visions of our future seem so desolate

Yesterday
Will always be a day within itself
Today is simply the present period of time

Tomorrow (for Crys)

Time moves on and wounds heal
Feelings of rejection and jealousy pass by
Things seem dismal only while dwelt on
there is a tomorrow

Real friends stand by
Others walk away, not knowing what to say
Look at life with a positive mind
Love comes and goes, what will be, will be

Be there for those too young to know
That "I do" doesn't mean forever
Others are hurting just like you and I
Give a listening ear when you can

Meeting new people may seem so hard
A time will come when the mind settles down
Some friends will stand by through torrid times
There is a new beginning, cherish each moment

Embrace your new self
Life is what you make it
Everyone you trust along the journey is special in some way
Tomorrow will come

Sample life as never before
Love will come when love is given
We own no one, and no one owns us
Love until tomorrow divides our paths

Second Chances

Is there such a thing as second chances with love? Is there truly someone who will bring butterflies and connect with me on a level so intense I almost forget they are not blood relations.

I say forget that emotion can ever exist. Maybe its because I have already found it in Another who has Another. Another who I can't seem to let go off. Wish it was as easy as they say. I think for the first time in the longest time I want to say I do and mean it.

So how do I move on from someone who helped me find me. Someone who I had my FIRST moments with. Someone who has seen the worst and best there is to me. Someone who helped me become that man Another is in love with.

I know I can be SAFE with Another who will have my babies, raise my family, be my rock, etc. . . yet ME wants to fall in love again with the same No1. The one who doesn't have to make sense, the one who has a devastating past/present. The one who comes with all the drama. The one all my friends seem to walk on egg shells around. . .

Its not all in my head! I know you feel it too because for a moment in Her presence there is a certain serenity and calm that makes me WAIT for THAT something. Call it love, call it seduction, call it obsession, call it whatever. . . All I know is it represents something that is worth waiting for sometimes.

So if its your first time then HELL hold on to IT for the moment you find yourself making sense of a past relationship you will start to find these words hitting home so hard you ask: do I still want another that makes me feel so great even if its for a moment or do I simply want The Other?

All that my mind can play back sometimes is the intensity and depth of our love making, the sad smiles of goodbye, the silly jokes, her love for technology. . . I know all of this as confusing as it seems has to mean something?! Well if its all in my head then I just want a moment to capture that emotion again. . .and again. . . and again.
