As my light becomes dark

I intertwine my words and vision into woven light

THE SOURCE

Fumbling with the straws
Grappling and juggling them
In my fingers
Where is the long one?
Hidden among the short ones
The likelihood of my success
Muddled amongst the coloured
Clutter
Without reason, my hopeless
Scrambling fingers
Spoiling and stumbling
They are failing me
                Failing me

INNER HYMN

The winds as they change
The blossom does sway
Dancing in the light
Swinging, caught in the breeze
Destiny wrapped in the warmth
As spring exhales it’s breathe
A hymn clings to the golden thread
The embrace dressed in jasmine scent
While petals begin to fall
Whispers of tomorrows hope reflect
The wind will change
And the spirit will drift
A heart loves you

FALLING OVER

inspired love
walk in light

                    walk in light

shadows of the spirit
fade with time
that sway like shoes hung
from an overhead wire
doing pirroettes through
the clouds and distant sky
as the sun and moon move
reflecting the glow
the notes are caught in the breeze
that balance on the edge
as the inner dawn breaks
the darkened claws
the ghost haunting
entrapping
no longer in control
the yellow step unseen
catching the step
pushing the soul to fall
without strings
toward the darkened ground
screaming sounds
trapped in the sorrowed heart
watching as the pride
is smashed into tiny pieces
coloured red, purple and green
scattered
the colour leaking all over the
darkened ground
the soul
and the swaying spirit
walk in light

            walk in light

YOUR LEAVING

I will always love you, and I remember you always at this time........

You left
You couldn’t stay
You had to leave
You went away
I hoped my love would be enough
My love for you
My love for you
Have you woken in a place I will never see?
Have you for forgotten this life?
Have you forgotten me?
Why did I not listen?
Why did I not hear?
I’m sure you tried to tell me
I’m sure you made it clear
Was I nothing to your heart?
And nothingness tore out your soul?
Tore the soul from your heart?
No warmth, no love
No longer you felt whole
Now there is nothing left
Like the dust of the earth
As the ashes rose
Is that all you’re worth?
Your spirit drifted away
And my heart it did close
A moment in time
As your spirit rose
As I closed my heart
I also closed my eyes
I let out a cry
And cried my goodbyes
Why didn’t you scream at me?
Scream, howl and cry
Maybe I would have heard you
Instead you chose to die
I have been there
Stared pain in the face
Nothing worth loving
Nothing but blackness
Nothing but hate
My head full of hatred
My body full of dread
You could have ripped out my heart
Held it, felt it
My heart too felt dead
Shades and shadows of death
Loomed all around
The doors felt closed
Locked
In a place underground
Where did I lose myself?
On a path made for me
It was a map of my life
But I felt lost
Trapped
In a life which that did not deserve me
Like you I wanted to die
And go far away
But something saved me
It was life, my life
My soul
Me.
As seasons change
I feel your soul is free
I feel your spirit
Do you feel me?
But as I say goodbye
I cry tears for you
I cry
I cry
I’ll always love you

HAIKU



 
Willow weeps downward
A kiss upon water’s edge                       
Drowns the spirit in stifled love




Caged wings fly inward
            Fluttering dreams float downward
The heart craves outward

OH TO BE THE CATTERPILLAR





The question

When one touch unfolds the suffocated presence
You trap me in the colours
Embedded in your heart.
Woven between the shadows forming a river in your soul
life changes we unfold
In cycles of change
a mystical experience (oneness)
Where level of consciousness
covers our skin.

Lifting out of oneself
Accelerated by transformation
Being questioned
Our spirits are challenged
And urgency and intensity
Fold around our deep visions
Wrapped in thoughts feelings and impulses
Where touch is changed
Motivating values and the perceived light.

As time passes freely through the air
The unfamiliar slowness
Turning in the midst of fear
Spinning quickly bringing into the present
The dreams intuition altering the function
Memories perception feels the awareness change
As the light falls and the water caught
Behind the invisible armour
Melting the unconscious
Into the infinite unknown, where sparks of light
Illuminate the insight and individuality
The emptiness where the water flows through thoughts
As a dimly sensed thought exists

Finally released

BY STRING




A silent heart waits for the break
Toward the end
The broken spirit begins to mend
Stripped back to a floating core
The spirit to find its wings and move
Toward the end

Toward the end
