I am yours as the summer air at evening is
Possessed by the scent of linden blossoms,
As the snowcap gleams with light
Lent it by the brimming moon.
Without you I'd be an unleafed tree
Blasted in a bleakness with no Spring.
Your love is the weather of my being.
......
O heart! Why must you lay your love so bare?
To share your heart and soul with one so dear?
I thought that
I was strong enough
to bear the pain and hold my bluff,
To hide my feelings from your gaze,
And keep them locked for future days.
For Months I kept this secret hidden well.
......
Moon moon come and shine
I have finished dinner of mine
your soul is lovely and divine
I offer my love but you decline
the thought of loosing you? I’m afraid.
But love is starting to fade.
mistakes after mistakes, should I have faith?
after all I’ve done? Was I just played?
......
I am not going to say I love you
Not because I don't,
but because I won't
In a matter of
months
weeks
days
minutes,
......
Though we need to weep your loss,
You dwell in that safe place in our hearts,
Where no storm or night or pain can reach you.
Your love was like the dawn
Brightening over our lives
Awakening beneath the dark
A further adventure of colour.
The sound of your voice
......
O heart! Why must you lay your love so bare?

He knew this was a special day.
Her beauty took his breath away.
His throat went dry as he said hello.
Fearing she would turn and go.
She smiled at him, so he took his chance.
And through bated breath asked her to dance
She clutched his hand; they danced all night.
They laughed and joked; things just felt right.
......
I wish you knew my name
the thought I had when I first saw you
I wish you knew my name
thinking maybe the sweet sound of it
and how easy it would roll of your tongue
and escape your mouth
would make you want to know me
I wish you would know my name
for my name is connected to me
......
You sit,
Watching the hour glass of life,
Pour out.
Terrified by the size of the pile,
Your fingers gather grains,
......
Queer love, difficult to define,
blooms like the garden's reddest rose, Facing the sun like a sunflower,
yet a roller coaster in repose.
It thrives even in desiccated soil,
its growth feels like magic, pure. Yearning for your love's company,
a longing, a wanting so sure.
When apart,
it feels like a piece of yourself has gone astray, Awaiting the laughter of your soulmate,
your partner, every day.
A glimpse, a sound, that will never come,
......
