As day awakens

you are
the gentle breeze
that runs through
these lines
the sound
of the ocean
as it
falls in love
with the shoreline
over and over
and the saturation
of the day
as it finds a way
out of the
darkness

Smiling

I lie back
as the sun
warms my naked soul
Smiling
I know you’re there
I can feel you
as the gentle breeze
rushes over me
I can smell you
as the summer rain
falls from the sky
caressing my skin
letting this moment
bring us together
for there is no other love
in this world
that I want
but yours.

These Lies

the lies
fall
one
by
one
from your
imperfect mouth
they stumble
and crumble
falling all the way
down
leaving a trail
of broken words
to lay on
the ground
for another
to fall upon

But not me
I no longer
take that path
I’ve chosen
another way
