I lay awake all through the night
While others lay asleep
As I think of you and I
The tears roll down my cheek
I cry because I love you
I cry because I care
But most of all the reason why I cry
Is you're not there
......
I looked into your eyes and saw the window to my soul
And knew right then for me there’s only you
I knew this was forever, I surrendered to this love
I was lost every time I looked at you
I felt I had I been searching - trying every door
But every flame I lit too quickly died
Until the day I found you - just waiting there for me
I knew I’d always want you by my side
......
Lying in the darkness
Nothing here to see
The shadow of my lonely self
Just staring back at me
Lying in the silence
Deafening to my ear
The beating of my lonely heart
The only sound I hear
......
Yes, I regret
The scornful dissipation
Of my salad days
When I was strong,
Believe me,
They didn’t last too long,
Believe me,
They didn’t last too long.

SEA WANTS ME
Waves are here for the winners
spirals floating in turquoise
dance ululating undulating
blue bright sight
a point with paddle board
to soar sanguine Seas
I know not whether I’m
merman or beach sand speck
......
Als ik morgen huil,
zal het niet alleen om verdriet zijn.
maar om wat eindelijk loslaat
na te lang zwijgen.
Er zit een zachtheid in tranen
die woorden nooit kunnen dragen.
Misschien spoelt iets weg,
misschien komt iets terug
......
GLIMPSE
My heart a pouch of rich wine overlays yours
A drop of blood spilled over an arum lily
It waits with longing intense, retains no tears
As it remembers its cringes of final fear when it
Jumped into your chest of steel
Your smell of fruit juice, water and old leather all around
My soul lays naked in a room of light

A BIRTH
Twelve hours in velvet dark
I waited for your shaft
to penetrate my channel of desire
birthing purity and long lashes
You came without a doubt
Acacia branches making curtains
their feet digging deep for
