POETRY: JUST THAT MOMENT

The lightning in your eyes flashing fire power-
halts the tracks of my time, our time.
The sound of the rocking chair motion beneath you
sounds out the tempo of creation and stills it;
even the smallest birth of a crocus in the yard ceases.
If a pin could drop it would be caught in this moment,
suspended in the air, you know this.
Your smile spreads a broad path across your face
exposing rows of fine white teeth clinched in pleasure.
You bask in inevitable triumph
tainted only by the whisper deep in timeless soul space
that no lightning sent from the eyes of anyone on this earth,
in this time, in this life will ever stop the movement of planets
or the power of gravity itself
as the least glint from my own fire power eyes giggle,
taste the lips of your forever, or fly
in the end .....it is all the same.




Part 2

Everytime you pass before me my heart skips a beat
And everytime your voice surrounds me I can feel the heat
Pulse races and body trembles- hoping we'll soon meet
I long for you.

Feelings scattered cross my mind like clouds upon the breeze
Thoughts and words fly everywhere, yet can't be formed with ease
What it is you mean to me; clear for one who sees
I long for you.

Drowning in a sea of dreams of what I hold most dear
Trapped within a cell I formed by wanting you so near
Companioned in the nights to come, shedding heart born tears
I long for you.

You could be my sun, my moon, my stars within the sky
I would give you all you need and never question why
We have only to join our hearts and venture forth to try
I long for you.

I would answer questions that you never knew to ask
I would gladly go and complete all your unfinished tasks
But most of all, I'll help tear down your self-protective mask
I long for you.

When you finally have the strength to let your heart go free
You'll find that her lost wanderings will end when she?s with me
I offer all it is I am and all I'll ever be
Long for me.




Part 3

Just one kiss
and my life was changed
How was I to know I'd find this?
-A love unrestrained

Just one touch
and my body was engulfed by flame
a desire I had not known much
until the likes of you came

Just those eyes
and I am frozen in time
when beside one another we lie
time passes as quickly as a child's rhyme

Just that moment
and nothing in my life was to be greater
so fast it went
but those moments have got better and better

Just one kiss
and look at us now
you, so much, I miss
and I wonder how-

How can I be so blessed
with something like this?
I received everything I've dreamed of...
In Just One Kiss



Part 4

Coursing. Endlessly searching for twists and turns.
Singing. Small ups and downs make forever melodies.
Following. Every moment trailing the mirrored image.
Carrying. Bearing life that successively gives life.

Man has not created a perpetual machine.
But one with one who's heart beats fast
can only see what doth can't be seen.
And all in all man has found a way,
That lets the sun rise through every day.
For man is not here to be heard or fought;
Thus, his heart is doth not connect to his misinterpret thoughts.
Love has no boundaries and sees all nothings.
Love doth not think on its own; yet it clutches to some things.
My love for you will always be visualized.
And as I walk amongst the winding frolic my love for you is realized


Part 5

The wind moves her hair.
The picture shines light on her face;
Her beauty


Part 6

Coffee shop is crowded
But empty without you
My judgement is clouded
I wonder what to do

You are so far away
When will I next see you
There're things I wanna say
And things I need to do

Can't focus on anything
You're never far from my mind
This thing we have; this little fling
Is something I thought I'd never find

I want to take you in my arms tonight
And hold you close to my heart
This feeling; I cannot fight
I've wanted you from the start

You make me smile
Even when we're apart
Thoughts of you go on for miles
You've awakened my dormant heart


Part 7

Like the boy who juggles all day,
Or that man who can't stop counting his first pay,
I look at you like you;re the only thing I see.
And, like a musician writing his very first piece,
I think of you night and day unable to cease.

And like the enslaved man would pray for freedom,
I pray that you may have wisdom.
And, just as a father would want to be with his new born baby,
I seek and pray that you would want to be with me.

And, as passionate as a lioness protects her young,
Or an eagle monitors her offspring,
I will always be here,
Dedicated and incontestably willing,
Never betraying your soul piercing stare,
For it's undeniably you who wears my Empress' crown.

Timeless and certified I will be in anticipation of your love,
But as one of the wiser men would declare,
If you love a dove,
Release it and wait for it to reappear.
