Sharp Blades Hurt

Once, I dreamt in fields of green
in a world where all seemed serene
following the tune of a magical harp
today, the blades of grass feel sharp
my heart aches and poetry hurts
thoughts are tumbleweeds in the desert
of my wandering mind....

Thank you for reading!

Barefoot in the Rain

Have you ever walked in the rain
feeling pain
Would you wish those gray clouds away
for today
Could you sing songs of summer fun
on the run

dreaming of you and the sun
drying salty tears from my eyes
loving you is hard to deny
feeling pain, for today, on the run

writing an ovillejo on the theme of rain 

That was an interesting form - not sure how I did

Waning Moon

Forgive me for not seeing
some stars are too bright
the moon, Jupiter, Venus and Mars
were the places we called ours

was it desire that burned in our souls
redemption found in our loving hearts
word-smithing one ladder rung at a time
ascending into the clouds heavenward

speaking in a tongue of understanding
spiraling in a cosmic universe of unknowns
they called us fools with unrealistic dreams
perhaps, we were merely survivalists

romanticism across the spirited sky
dreamers in search of fulfillment
love can sometimes make you cry

forgive me for not seeing
some stars are too bright
the moon, Jupiter, Venus and Mars
were the places we called ours

I wanted you see beyond the surface
the depth of my core was yours to explore
wishing  to see beyond the field of view
navigating the star wheel, searching for you

singing ballads of the waning moon
variable stars, changing through space
creating a constellation of possibility
love shining through blessed eternity

romanticism across the spirited sky
dreamers in search of fulfillment
love can sometimes make you cry

 

author's note: a poem, a song or just the wanderings
of my mind.  A work in progress….

black rose
sharp thorns of love
soft alluring beauty
haunting memories within lips
touch me
