rise
lightly I sparkle
effervescent in the dark
waves upon deep waves

in retrospect...

hollow
last night was too much
drained by so many people
crushed against the walls
..............................................
walls of faces
depthless eyes
all so desperate

time to restore
rebalance
regroup
breathe

from tonight a...

visit
alcohol dulls words and
breeds shallow conversation
I need more to live
...............................................................................
I have tried, I visited, I talked, asked questions
I am done, I need more, it frustrates
I can't get what I need from this
maybe interesting to visit
definitely Not where
I want to stay
save me

take this as you will...
to be who I am
I need more...
you know
where to
find me

recently, my..

storm
watching the sky crack open
heat rises from me in waves
I am released
...................................................................
never assume...ask...question...wonder...

How else are you to know who you're really talking to?
Who is standing in front of you? Who are they?
When the right words unlock their eyes...that spark.
Can you see that spark when you find the person?
Fan the flame, hear the stories, feel the life.
I am constantly amazed.

the doors open...

wide
sliding and falling
I am pulled into your eyes
water the colour of tea

on the surface...

sun pennies
within solitude
my path flows like clear cool water
green waves flash

found time...

wander
thick sound of the heat
pours slowly over warm skin
two dark pools open

a walk
swallow the miles
step out on the horizon
and stretch to the sky
.....................................

I need to step out to stir up words...
inside, they scrape against the ceiling
and gather in dark corners
the air becomes too thick
short shallow breaths
blue windows close
I need the sky
an open door
far gazing
outward
inward
life
