I Miss You Too

were the last words to crush my heart
Caused an explosion and upon my chest . . . lie the spark
I don't want to think too much, so I dream
of your voice warming my hollow night
I exhaust myself in this realm of predetermined fairytales
The effect ... makes me to feel sweet things
Is this another phase? I wish to know Master
Never had I spoken on the phone from evening til' the morning after
I wonder what holding your hand feels like
I wonder what laying on your chest sounds like
I wonder what story your arms will tell me, as they wrap me
I wonder what wonder your lips will teach me, if they'll hug me or make me feel needy
I wander in my wonder ... then I hear
Your soft ears, so warm
My silent calls, so worn
Because
Compassion connects us
Withdrawal arrests us
My smile spreads all over your hesitation
You become an avid detector of my shy face
and as I sit on your lap arched to the left of your ear, I whisper words you never dreamt you could hear
Do you have to let go?
I think you know me
No, no, no
Don't hang up . . . on me
I want to be in what is for three crumbs longer
Yes, yes, yes
Rejection is a tough pill to swallow ... especially when your not expecting it
I did not expect you
but now I do . . . desire to reflect and produce another you

If you don't mind, halt your Goodbye

Don't you know?
Special is a word that couldn't describe you
Love is a feeling that is always beside you
This is just a conversation I'm having in my thoughts ... with you and God sitting beneath the ark of my heart 
Keep me in remembrance my distant Friend
When our wings spread, we can fly again.

Remember when you told me you were Gargantuan with a lower case g
And I said, "fine let it be"
You made me grow in humility ... so
If it be His will then the seed planted in and in-between us will grow, for the fruit of our becoming shall show . . . a Garden that has bloomed with its defects well pruned
What a treasure
My virtue you measure
I've fallen captive to a part of you that has been shun
Nope and no never do I want to be done
Perhaps believing that you may be the one
And I'm okay with admitting that you've won
me over. 

The distance that divides us
is like
The butterfly and the sky dust
like you
Quiet yet attentive 
In prying your ears open, what do you think I'd find?
God and all the answers to my question Why

You make me want you ... to want to
talk to you forever
be your aim of study
give your hands a reason to rest
let time and sorrow wean from my breast
be your inspiration
get you to write again

Wait, was it your voice on the dial that went ..."Goodnight"
Tell me then, Is it a crime? to hear you say it --please-- one more time?
I exhaust myself in this realm of predetermined fairytales
The effect ... makes me to feel sweet things
As I press the key to end . . . your rich words linger in the moon again, "I miss you too", melting echoes whistle through and through
You showed me the color new and in me it brewed
and so I gave my doubts a reason to feud


P.S. 

. . . I do remember 
I asked about you, "What's his name? "
No one knew and while wanting to ask others, I didn't want to attract any more attention to you . . .
I wonder if I did?
Maybe in this moment you'd already be mine . . .
Maybe in this moment I'd be wrapped in your arms and all would be fine . . .

I don't know
but I do know ... that, if not in this
then, most definitely
In the Next, Lifetime
I’ll make you mine.

Great Mother

 
 
I am the one who receives the sky & its thunderous rain. The hand that reaches out to help you maintain, balance. I am in-between the seen & unseen. I give birth to all living things. Smooth as chartreuse waters; I provide sustenance to your Great big Father. I am the Light hand that shows you the way, just as the stars give the night a reason to stay. I see you in my womb. There you grow as flowers bloom.

Homeless Smile

 When I see you smiling . . .
You can smile?
How do you smile?
Where does your smile live?
How can I imitate that natural light?
You have nothing, but you still don't cry?
That is wisdom, in your smile.
Here, hold my hand.
In your smile, my heart still stands.
Take me to that promised land--that you gleam of without force . . .
Whose your supplier and its source?
Do they provide for free or in bulk?
My shopping cart is in overload.
I want to memorize the history of your smile.
Pledge allegiance to its crease.
Made me forget the dirty street, you stand on and have made a home--out of nothing.
Yeah.
But, your smile says more . . .
                 It says, "No
I am rich with wealth, don't you know?
The Sun woke up and said Hello!"

Virgo Stare

Made me
Saved me
Your eyes were the arms reaching to pull me up from the cold swamp, rising high, ready to swallow whatever hope remained
Your stare produces heat
Inflames needs
Your eyes shine bright--the light like the center of the sun
Burns
Carried me unto safe grounds
In them is a best friend in a smile
A boat afloat the Nile
I crave looking in your eyes--to soak in their chartreuse waters
Your eyes keep record of my life's glory and its dark story
Your stare never bores me
We have fallen into our souls by sight and cease to let go at night
Stare into me
Pull me from behind
Worries hide
In your stare I nearly lose my mind
Don't reason what I feel
Instead just flow
As my captain you say go and it is so
Following ... trusting you know
My hurt in your glare never shows
When you look, the peak of Mount Everest is shook
You chase me
To catch me
Arrest me
Hold me
Clothe me
Throw me
Undress me
Playfully yet namely and mainly--slowly
You place a finger or two in my shaft
Causing tense rivers to blast
In your stare, there ... is a 2nd chance
A reason to laugh
Lay on the grass
Love in mass

Free like

 The Love between a blind man and a seeing woman. The Love of a mute woman and a well versed man. The Love of a deaf man and a woman who understands. The Love of a mute, deaf, & blind woman and man. The language of silence. Silent communication frees and filters the need to prove a thing because it just is, you feel it and just know.

Steps that are loud

Swindle arch clouds, with a new language spoken
A heart bled, left, unchosen
A bridge, miles, 13
Holy, Queen, desecrated slowly
There walking
An angel whose seed is thirsty
Soulfully inundating an Atlantic- secret Atlantis -Dream!
Yes I do
And I, think of you
And I, I want to cry
Because the God in you, is in me
Dusts form from the sand quickly
It's the Truth that I'm singing about
Scorns rainy rendered snout
Eye witness the scar of Cain leave
A little child's bored mind lead
Destiny
She came to me
She sang with me
She prayed for me
She laid on me
 The healing hands of her voice
Welcomed by my warmth
Had absolutely no choice, but to lean and drink with it in each wake of my rise
Soft circles ring around the rosy steeply, easily round and up the mountain of  my thigh
Where ever you go
I follow, high
Packed every piece of my heart for the road so that peace wouldn't catch a cold
I'll hold you in chains promise without disguise
Letting go if not honest
But you came to me honest
Where we'll end up , our soul-journ is not promised
This grew
With you tarnished
With you blue
With my soul
Here, reap what I sow
These steps enigmatically grow
Loud
Unyielding
They Dance with the clouds
Around and around,holding Loves infinite sounds
 
 POEM INSPIRED BY NAS SONG - "DANCE"

Tamu Corazón

Amar con mis ojos, cerrado
Esperando con el tiempo, el frío
Plegado de mis emociones
Calmante Dolores con su loción
Etéreos caliente poción

Loving with my eyes, closed
Waiting with time, cold
Folding my emotions
Soothing aches with his lotion
Ethereals warm potion

Leaves falling ...

Breeze calling
Wind blowing
Stars snoring
Envying the birds for being close to the sky
All that their able to see
Reflecting on possibilities
Laying dormant in you
The Redwood tree
I'll whisper to a star
Tell it to go find you
Make you come bare
Sire to all things rare
Quiet like a cricket chirping in the day
Slow as a snail trying to make it's own way
Don't leave me hanging on perhaps
A branch that has already snapped
You know I'd give it all I have
Lay here
Try to understand
Caress that part of my neck
Look into my eyes
See if it's been felt yet
Open legs of perpetuity
 Crying uncontrollably
Efface weeds of disgrace
Spray bliss in this space
Pear your mate
Hu..shh, hold the taste
Split me into pieces
Your puzzled secret
Show me a pride dead in the mind
I'll be your wine
Wet what is dry
Grow inside
Make moist what is proud
Only two in this crowd
Play the risk with our hearts
Soak your brush with this art
Spoken words in the dark--Ascend, waterfalls
Rage hard

 



Shine

Learning to let go
-----------Of yesterday--------of the past-----a past--Atlaas
Offered a glass, of cool water to now
Embraced it. Kept it. Stayed in it's company.
It "takes time", they say
"Not overnight", they say
"Patience!", they say
..................... A patient of patience, I say
We break up to make up, like the Stylistics sang
Today Is a new day
11 is the number played
An end to my woes
Saved
I don't walk on eggshells no more
Too many cuts & scars on that floor
Made a truce with healing
Sun rising
It has begun
Walking on tumbled crystals, each, one by one
No dream of mine is to deep to reach
Too low to seek
Too much to keep
Too blind to see
My wildest dream
Seeing Mother-Earth on her side, smiling in all shades of green
So..ul cleanse me from all the negativity I may have projected, injected or accepted
Inordinance stands only to be abjected

Flying

... over the ocean with ease
Flying without need
The clouds
The sea
Love crystals
A book
Warm tea--me
Are you still there?
No I'm not
I'm riding the mountains waves
Winded
Because I love with height
Goodnight
I found refuge in the crease of the sky
A wanderer
I wonder where I go sometimes

Our Hearts Found (a match when) ..

Your kiss melted my ears
Watered my eyes
Your kiss gave me life
The Moon showered your lips
The Sun held mine firm
We ignited the hereafter
To come faster
You held me down with an invisible hand
I obeyed visibly sparked
You untied the knot that bound my wings, so I flew light in your night sky
Cried in the arm of your lip
You held on and showed me "won't let go"
Hugging me internally so
 
 
 
 
 
Absolute (deep inside one) ..
