why is everything opposite when
the hand that stretches out to you
reaching for your heart
flashes rose covered daggers
glistening as mirrors you inhabit
why do i stand astride the sea
the land the moonlight calving
the surf with repeated sun
while we expect to tread water
when the force of stars pushes you in
why seek answers in these pages
not yet written with autumn leaves
while summer wraps itself in me vine-like
as i see where the light leads me
away from the past i cast in this present
what do they say those silent stones underfoot
walking treading tracing circles in the sand
trying to understand the tides that star fish dream
of the air the sky we climb
trying to find the sea up above
what is the sunset really saying in color
in sensational fleeting moments furtive
we sip the wine drink the clouds eat earth
sleep with water and sunrise becomes amniotic
so we nurse with blind eyes beating hearts
why do i return here seeking you
as if your heart my mind our song lives
in ink wells full of wishes sorrows
ecstatic regrets i exorcise feelings
in fluid blue hues sometimes the blues
where do i find my glory salvaged
rising again with flowers again summer
again on fire i follow the light the
dark the teachings of broken words
the harmony of hurt the disjoint in delight
