POETRY: LOST IN LITTLE MOMENTS, THESE MEMORIES

seemingly virginal was her skin
as i strolled along the beach this morn.
waves had erased away all evidence
of all who had ventured before me
saving a single starfish
proposing that maybe
it was placed there for me to find.
gently cradling it in my hands
and wading into the embrace of the sea
i placed it back into its world
and smiled.
guiding myself back onto the sand
i found my own tracks erased
and having an uneasy feeling
of my own isolation there
a woman appeared, said she found me.
gently cradling my face in her hands
she embraced me with her heart
and smiled...

This deep blue sea is a window to my heart.
I feel it beating for its last time.

The window- fading, the heart- turning to stone.
The sea will dry up...
And a desert shall take over
A window lost forever...

Shall I never be found?
Maybe a lost stranger will dig me up
And my heart, once again beating
and full of life t

Till that day comes...
Life is not life.

Love is a jewel treasured in a person's heart and you do not know how
it got there or when it came to be.
It is an emotion two people feel for each other when no one understands
but them and there is no need for others to you see.
You know that when you are sleeping, someone far away is dreaming about
you and longing to feel your touch next to them,
To hold you and tell you they love you and would do anything to be with
you as you would to be with them.
You feel a sense of peace in your heart because you know deep down
inside they will soon be yours no matter how long it takes, that they
are worth the wait.
When you find love, never let it go and and when it is right in your
heart you will know:)

The ocean waves crash softly onto shore
And the sun creeps silently into the sky
And I open my eyes slowly to see you
Right beside me
I softly touch your tender skin
And as I do comes the whisper of the wind
As it glides softly thru to brace your face
And then climbs thru your hair
And crawls upon my face
I feel the sensation of your love
As the wind lies down slowly to rest upon my face
And I breath in deeply
And your love is quickly spread thru my body
Everything freezes but the time
And soon it is night again
And I look into your eyes
To see the stars of the night
Reflected in your eyes
And I kiss your lips
Slowly we fall asleep again
In each other's arms
To again repeat the sense of your love
And as I close my eyes
The wind glides over your mouth and collects
And then brushes past my ears to echo the words
I love you

In the merciless dark of emotions
I linger
Where lovers entomb me -
Trapped in their folds
I am a spider
Scurrying from its own web

While all the days, the nights, the hours
Spent in the company of love
Serves to crush and mold me -
To placate and console me -
To enter immutable shapes
From which I cannot, and never shall escape.

Once I was a King, now merely dust
Calling for its echo in sepulchral tones -
Decorating darkness in a jeweled box -
Trapped in this burial chamber of the heart

Where emotions surround me -
Their force gives me form, shaped by their art
For love is my casket
And I am its corpse -

Lost in little moments, these memories
Of summer days on the pyramid sands -
Sharing and declaring true sunset
Or traces made by indelicate hands -
All these have fled, and I am alone -

Bereft of choice by my lack of emotion

I linger

When I was young and alone
I never thought there could be
Another person who was alone
Dreaming of someone like me.

Then the day came along
When I knew I had found
Another person just like me
With both feet on the ground.

So we both knew it was destined
And we both knew it was right
And we realized we'd found magic
As we hold each other tight.

So beneath this endless sky
Where all the heavens see
I will now dare to say I love you
Because I know that you love me.

there is a thin line between lust and love
lust is a craving for chocolate
love is a craving of emotion.
love soothes emotionaly
lust soothes physically
messing through hair and a soft touch on the lips
love is a race of the heart 
while lust is a race with the hand.

Sweet memories sometimes conflict
In our minds when experiences resemble one another
But so vivid is the night when two hearts clicked
And were ordained by the astral angels that assembled.

The night was mundane
Except that the silver moon was absent
But the countless stars winessed the mandate
Along with the women who roast corn by the roadside.

Just on a routinely mooching
Even thinking that we knew love
Palms fused before the envious munchers
God! The spell fell over us and our heads were lost.

Our bodies felt so weak
And we lost knowledge of our own fingers
The magic union vision now falls upon at work 
And since my love for thee, remains wonderous.

Your heart is not just a muscle
that beats inside your chest.
It's a place where all
of your love can rest.

Your heart is not just a part of
your body; it's part of your soul.
But sometimes your heart
can take a toll.

Your heart can be broken;
your heart can be shattered.
Your heart can be whipped;
your heart can be battered.

Your heart can be your enemy;
your heart can be your friend
your heart is the little voice
inside you that said
"i think i can"

A life spent without shared dreams,
Is a life not truly lived.
Let's say we'll go to that beach,
Even if we know we never will.
Say we'll make love on the shore
As the waves roll against us.
Our bodies will become one
Beneath a large moon
Surrounded by bright stars.
The moist sand will swallow us,
As we become one with the earth.

Let's say that we'll take a walk in the woods,
Even if we know we'll never have time.
Say we'll walk in the meadow
Beside a gurgling stream.
We'll dance in the moonlight
With the fireflies.
Falling onto the grass we'll lay,
Watching the stars glisten
Until the world around us is a dream...

Let's say we'll go to the mountains,
Even if we doubt we ever will.
Say we'll ride bareback on horses,
When neither of us ever liked them much.
We'll find we love it as we ride
Higher and higher,
Until we can look down upon the little town below.
We'll light a fire under the stars.
The light will embrace us as we kiss...
A kiss of true, unconditional love,
Of dreams we've shared throughout the years.

Your kind hand has touched my heart
Your words have soothed my soul
Our spirits dwell in harmony
To you my life I owe

You are the very reason 
For everything I do
With patience and understanding
That is imparted to all but a few

This gift you choose to share with me 
And a precious gift at that
Your love in abundant measure
Is always given back.

Cast on life?s waters carefully 
The buds of love return
The eternal flame within my heart 
For you will always burn

There are tears in your eyes
There are wonders in your mind 
I hold you close, near my heart
I feel your heart beat companied with mine 
* * *
You are surely mine,
I am surely yours 
There is no me and you 
But only we and our
* * *
Come close to me
let me hear your heart beat
let me hear it so softly
* * *
Your touch is so smooth
Your kiss is so tender 
Your embrace is softer
Your love is nicer
* * *
Come sit with me 
Come share with me 
The world and future of what is going-to-be
* * * 
I want only you
I need only you
Because I see through you... 
me

At night, all seems at peace. 
All things are getting sleepy, 
all things are slowing down. 
It's time once again to let the body rest. 
Yet lying here in bed, 
it's hard for me to sleep. 
I can feel the heat from your body, 
I can hear the beating of your heart. 
I can hear your breathing steady. 
I love having you so close to me. 
I can see the outline of your face 
in the dimly lit room. 
As I stare at your beauty 
I realize how wonderful you are. 
And as I watch you sleep, 
I can't help but wonder, what's going on 
behind your closed eyes? 
What are you dreaming about 
that helps you sleep so peacefully? 
It makes me feel so wonderful 
that you feel so safe with me 
to fall asleep in my arms without a second thought. 
I wonder what your dreams are 
and what you hope to be 
and when you are successful 
I hope I'm there to see. 
I wonder what a guy like me did 
to deserve a young woman so special. 
A woman who gives me her time so freely, 
who treats me like I'm special. 
I would never want to be with another. 
I've lucked out getting the best there ever could be. 
If ever you should stay awake long enough, 
and I fall asleep fast enough 
perhaps you might look at me while I'm sleeping 
and wonder what I'm dreaming of 
behind my closed eyes. Be assured my love 
all my dreams, both awake and asleep, 
only consist of you.

You're in the very deepest place
Where no-one else can see
Fathoms down in consciousness
Where I meet you and you meet me

Fantasy and energy
Combine in fire and synergy
Life sparks independently
Powers surge contentedly
Dimensions connect dynamically
Dreams can become reality

You're in the very deepest place
Where no-one else can see
Fathoms down in consciousness
Where I meet you and you meet me

PART III

When you wake up tomorrow, 
Know i am thinking about you at the very moment
For you are always on my mind and in my heart.
When you wake up tomorrow,
Know that someone longs for your sweet and tender touch.
When you wake up tomorrow
Feel rejoice and energy just to know 
That someone cares as much for you as I do.

Life....what is it for?
Why do we live?
Is it to love? 
To have fun?
To enjoy ourselve?
What is Life for?
It doesn't matter.
Because it's not about life...
Not about love... fun... 
or enjoyment.
It's about beauty.
That's why we live.
That's why we die.
Because we're beautiful.
So.... 
beautiful.
Everything we do.
Everything we say.
Everything we think.
Everything is beautiful.
And why...
Do people feel awe 
When they see beautiful things...
mountains...
animals... 
people... 
it's because of beauty....
It's because....
we
are 
in
love 
with
beauty. 
And that's why we live....
because life...
is beautiful. 
And we...
are in love....
with beauty.
