Goodbye definitely maybes, as positive as the ocean will kiss the seashore. This crown is bright as my steps seek light. Moving on, next time I'll be sure.

Wash Away

To stand in the tide,
The place where the earth and sea collide
To remember who we are,
chin up, eyes on the stars.
 the salty waves
cold playful game,
threatens to wash me away.

Bare toes, grey foam
some sandy

warm 

footprints

don't fit with mine.

The ones that were here,
before..
stood here

with their questions.
and  empty longing


But
I am
so full to bursting, flowing
rushing out
into the sea
burning with desires
like the Sun.

Unlike them
I will

never

wash way.

Hearts in Hell

My soul suffocates inside itself, I can't enjoy the moment today, not one...I am lost, squelched..and open to every speck of toxic dust that flies in, every dark whisper in my heart, every lie and lust and ache. A sickening inescapable virus. Is this a little taste of the hearts in hell?

Fog

I try desperately to grasp your thoughts but all I hear is my own. I'm not sure whether to wait or search, sift or be still. Watching, I hold out the golden net of my being that barely lives without you. Do not let my confidence wane or that I might go barreling into the darkness. Your sunshine and beauty has shown me that you love and have what I seek on your mind. May I be the woman like the harpist that you called after your own heart. Let me dream in vivid color and emotion, make me feel alive.
