Sweet

Like the moon at night

Holding on to the sky

Sweet

Like an apple in September

Softly kissing a branch

Sweet

Like a child’s wisdom

Gently teaching her mother

Sweet

That’s what you are

Sweet and fresh and mellow

Like a boat that is pushed by the wind

You drift further and further away

I watch you go and sometimes

There’s tears in my eyes

Sometimes there’s laughter

When I look at the stars

Climbing up on heaven’s stairs

I see your face way up there

Because you take the high road

And I take curvy paths down below

Where the rivers meet oceans

Where the seas meet the...

I carry my heart heavy

It weighs at least one ton

And I carry it in my hands

Up a hill always higher

I carry my heart through

The days the pains the shames

The shapes of guilt and wanderings

I carry my heart like a stone

I feel, feel, feel

And I cry just about as much

I carry my heart a little higher

And the day I’m tired I will rest

I’ll put my h...

Uncertainty hits me

With a whip sometimes

Because even though life

Is not the simple path

I once hoped for

I still believe

I believe in Life

In a High Presence

That Looks Over Us

The little ants

The molecules that make up Earth

We cry, we sigh, we die

But I want to love

Before I go I need to know

Is there such a thing

As true love on Eart...

Speak to me of magic

The real magic of real love

No facsimile non-attachment

Just the really real thing

Your real lips on my real lips

And my real thighs in your real hands

The real openness in my readiness

Magic when you come close to me

The pain of the pleasure

Because it’s so close, and so fine

So complete, so specifically chosen

Undertaken possibiliti...

Later

As if there was a tomorrow

Later

As if something else existed

Later

As if the opportunities weren’t missed

And so

Life goes

By us

Because we wait

For Later.

Innocence visited me again

She sat at my table and looked at me

I offered her my best tea

Outside, it was pouring rain

It was night

Innocence sat down

And dipped her lip in my tea

Your tea is made of tears, she said

I cried some more

So she would have enough to drink

I cried when she pronounced the words

Love again

Innocence was a woman

That lo...

I have known cities

Cities of lost gold and dust

Temples of silver clouds and vast

Lands of dreams and desires

I have known oceans

Oceans of pearls and water snails

Caves filled with iridescent snakes

Miraculous places of Earth

I have known people

Beautiful, sinful and radiant people

Humans of all walks and stories

Entire colleges of knowledge and such

After some time

I feel you always closer

In my heart

The people you’ve known

Intimately

In the time of us apart

The nights that I’ve spent

Intimately

While we were apart

I just connect dots

You and I on a paper

Waiting for a line

To transgress the forecast

To let go of the past

Set ablaze what is passed

I still feel that string

It’s st...

I used to imagine your smile

Lasting days and days

When I would treat you like

The stars treat the sky

And like the riverbanks treat the rivers

I’d caress you for a long long time

When it would be time to stop I’d do it again

I’d caress you with my voice and my doings

And my experiences and my heart in love

I’d caress you with my clothes and with my hands

And wit...

If you think I’m not the one dear,

It’s because you’ve made me that way.

Strange how you told me how perfect I was

The times I unveiled my soul to you.

I showed you all of me and you took

My courage and said nice thank you

Now you get to keep that bit of my heart.

I showed you my secrets and the little things

That inhabit the crevasses of my being.

These little...
