Running through the tall weeds
Of all we have been through
How it has grown taller than us
Hand in hand, we escape
To remember when
Time was not an enemy
…but a friend
Like you
Like me
Come lay under the stars
Baring all of our scars
To the eyes we trust
We are safe here
In our land
…of magic and love
We are the midnight
Crouching in hopes cobwebbed corner
Sending kisses on trains to eachother
Spreading dreams like whistles
Calling them stealthily home
We are the unsuspected believers
To boost and carry on for the one …and for all the others
Grown up from sawed off roots
Making yellow from our blues
Lifting soul songs to the night sky
Praying for a star to carry the message
Whilst passing us by
It is our dark and we have blessed it
While the rest sleep
We write faith into their eyes
Yes…
…We are the Midnight…
I lurk in the forest of your heart
I touch my toes ever so gently
Around all the pieces
You fear are
….broken for eternity
I am not afraid
Of the dark and shadowed place
….Of all you have revealed
And still, all your lips hold sealed
I sleep in the depth of your soul
Known to few
Hidden from all
I kiss its essence and paint
My colors
To blend with your red and grey
I sleep inside
The genius of your mind
The depth it bleeds
I bleed back
Caressing and swimming
Along the shores
And far below
This could be limitless
And I wish not to go
I gaze through your
Wondrous eyes
Straight into
…what makes you mine
I gaze from so faraway
I gaze through
my own dark
…and hidden space
I gaze upon your hands
That I may one day feel
The growing bond
That proves us real
Inspired by sweet Annie B
Across the universe
His hands are sweeping her hair
Golden locks, a hiding place for her wilted stare
His love harnesses no questions
He knows, she quietly begs for his affection
He cradles each tear drop
He captures each fear
Allowing her wild spirit
…to roam with a freedom repaired
On the tips of butterfly wings
On the dew of a dawning field
As he
Catches a ride, on her ruby studded coattails
…The magical trace of their glorious fate
From dancing with the stars up on high
To coming down, with a sobering cry
Golden strands again shielding her eyes
He is sweeping her hiding place
and rocking her grief
Across the universe, exists two lovers
and I wonder
…Is one of them me?
A distracted world
lay on its back
Tickled by a materialistic god
…and I am empty inside
Hoisting up a fading smile I shop to own the priceless
True wealth rumored to be free
I have been working tirelessly
…Is this what my life is to be?
Decaying for another mans goal
Spending all my time …in the rearview of our front porch
The hours tick by
Like a slow melting ice
…begging for sun
I am frozen in this cubicle
Away from my loves
To give them a life
But what about playing on an impulse?
And rising beyond looming icicles
…That I could die hung over this keyboard Still dreaming of a life with you
Grieving the seconds I never said your name!
I should rise up, and be my own sun! Unthaw a buried intuition Take your hand to sketch my change An invaluable recognition… Dying for joy, and daring to live the stories That make up the glorious lines …in the earths face
I carved out my soul
now i lay naked without my walls
I’ve no one to blame but myself
it is no one’s fault but mine
The ricochet of silly dreams
and backhand of belief
The fruitless hope forcing buds
like me
She’s a damn fighter
The Lord is all I have
I am clinging to Him with my whole being
in this blazing heat I am quivering
Lord I pray for life
that i may not shrink away
show me how you love your daughter
the metaphorical change to wine from water
Rain rubies and diamonds
glimpses into heaven
Misted in perfect falls of love
My eyes are black in this pulseless life
sparks extinguished
the loneliness of night
You did not search
You were already there
waiting with quiet arms
in my blue dreamers chair
I crawled upon your lap
A baby with no tears
unblock these caged emotions
unmute my screaming layers
frozen to cry
this hour I wail
rock me to sleep
Gently closing eyes… that weep
Life, Love, Family and Travel as we experience it
Mostly light hearted but often with a serious message.
