The Birth

Suddenly and softly, 

seeks the world around. 

Breaks the withheld silence, 

kills it with a sound. 

First breath, shakes death. 

Opens up a life. 

Warmth, rest, 

struggles, breast.. 

comfort, warmth, delight!

Black & Gray

To see the world, in another light. 

Without prejudging, without insight. 

To take afresh and not dismiss, okay?

 

To drop our fears and stand up tall.

Dismiss all labels, drop the small.  

To recognise our love, for once and all.

If I could live my life alive, 

no more worries, nothing to hide. 

I promise not to break your world, with love.

Divine Angels

An angel cried..

cold and white. 

The sky turned..

black alright. 

The stars dimmed 

and failed to light.
Tonight.

The sun froze..

and didn't climb. 

The clock stopped..

and all lost time.

My heart pounded..

My breath stopped.

Divine.

Reflections

All thoughts are done, 

all songs are sung. 

My glass is empty, see?

The tap runs dry, 

friends by and by, 

In the mirror, I can't, 

see me.

I look about, 

within, without, 

I search for company. 

An empty room, 

a wilted bloom. 

there nothing more 
to see.

Beside

Is the sky defined by its colour, so blue?

Does the wind once blown, return or renew?

Does the sun once its shone, die for the day? 

Does the moon change monthly or does it stay?

The way I feel and think of you,

is never with sadness, never quite blue. 

I think of the joy we had in the past 

and hold on to love; a love that will last. 

So be well my baby. Be by my side..

and share in this love, I wear it with pride.

Delight

Within a glint of green-gold light, 

I see at first what is in sight,

my mind it lights a spark, possibly. 

Within the realm of thought tonight, 

my dreams turn on and oh so bright, 

I see the signs of burning love 
for me. 

But is this thought a lonely soul?

Imagination, tales untold?

The dawn it brings along reality. 

It is my fate, it shall be free. 

It is my choice, frivolity. 

It is a laugh, it is delight, 

it is escape - tonight.

The Naked Beach

If I sat naked, as if in a dream, would it be beauty? 

Or something obscene?

The waves beat my breast, the sand drags me down, 

the ocean deserts me, a body half drowned.

If I was to hope, to be by your side, 

would you welcome me back or just try and hide?

One day we shall meet, united again, 

despite all the tides, our hearts they will mend. 

I long for the day, to lay by your side, 

nothing but love, nothing to hide.

The Morning Mist

First light, clock, wake, body-ache.

Stretch, shower, water, clean.

Hair, dry, products, sore eyes.

Look, turn, check, alright.

Rush, drive, headlights, arrive.

Mist, dawn, birds, song.

Find, place, pose, wait.

Turn, stare, numb..

Perfect.

MUD

Before the dark comes the light. 

I come to you in deep midnight.

Hidden by the mud of yesterday.


So come with me and be set free. 

And live together ... happily.

I only want to laugh and to play.
