God knows

I love you so much

How can one long for your touch

To know you

And appreciate you

All of you 

All of the time

Perhaps

My creator 

Can do me a lasting favor 

And grant me a mercy

To love the most high

As much as I love you.

The love of my life

The love of my life left me
I suppose it was all of her
And none of me

I replant my garden today
Hoping that it will grow
More flowers, buds
Nectar for the bees

The love of my life
Was right to follow
Her dreams

And I sit here
Planting flowers

Hoping they will sprout
Newness
Resolve
Happiness

Even in the winter months

The love of my life reminded
Me with one letter

Look for me inside
I will always be there

The love of my life is in me
And it can only ever be so

How can I divorce myself
From myself

My left hand and right hand 
Begin to plant
And anticipate 
The lonely
Orchid

Which blooms every year
Knowing
That it too
Must dwell
In sunlit.

Towards my twin flame

When I'm one with you
All pain goes away

It is the power 
Of incomplete judgement

That never finishes its final thought
Or begins a new one

Toward the pretense 
That separateness exists

It is in this unity
Of understanding
I find my eternal home.

The moment we all started

When the Phoenix falls 
Ashes bawl
From the eyes 
Of all doves

When the ashes are sparked 
There comes rebirth
In the form of all stars

Meet with me here
There are no enemies 
With a soul
Which is one

Ignite 
Allow the fire
Fusion
And fission

To  start
Burn and Churn
Linking Suns

Wild guesses to where we will arrive
Or just how much we will find

Uncovered in each others plunge
Perhaps we will discover what we always knew

From the moment we first begun.

Universal trust

I just want you happy 
You deserve it to be

I feel I can make it hard
Because I turn like the sea

And you like the shore
Stay relevant with ease

At times I feel all emotions
Toss and turn inside me

It takes a stable soul
To conquer this spree

That is wild like the tempest
With calm air inside free

And the pressure 
The force

I won't let it be
If its from my far coast

Send Fourth the Command 
Tell the weather to cease

Redirect the storm
If it means you some harm

Or is blowing your windows shut
Tearing at your palms

I've tried to master fate
I've tried to master love

I am a slave to a process
That only the universe trusts.

Mystical Union

I could wake up to your essence
Each day of my life

Beyond any judgement
I find where true love lives
In the heart, in the eyes

It doesn't just lay at the feet
Trodden by the beloved

Although gladly it would worship
The feet that graces it's touch

It is found when we are miles away
Yet I still wake to your spirit

As if by bedside
And close to me you stay

No matter what
You may always be around

There is a joy in this mystical union
That words can never sound.

A simple kind of Love


I still drink your taste
And swallow parts of you

In the desert hot sands
They refresh me like new

And I think you of all understand

The joy that spins upon the horizons hues

That's why we can laugh and give our thanks too

We can explore endless worlds
And always rely true

On the beloved in each
My name is yours too

I never revealed a fact that all still dispute

Yes we all are one
Most evident proof

In the way we both think
Of clever slight moves

That relay a true love
The kind children use

To show the world
The simple act love

Is so very plain
In hidden sight

So below
And above.
