Memories in black and white,
Sang in full and vivid colour.
Odes of joy to moments gone
Before the day is even done.
Happiness intended
To be treasured forever —
This day was,
And always will be
Only yours and mine.

Broken hearts, severed lives,
False starts, damaged histories,
Pulled apart and left behind,
All but horizons —
Breaking dawns,
New beginnings,
Different light.

Seeking yours, seeking mine,
Motion, pressure,
Ever closer —
Two desires amplified.

Matching rhythms,
Alternating
Who's below,
And who above —
Hungry eyes,
Two lives in motion,
Spicy recipes of love.

Bubble wrapped magic,
Glass dreams, too volatile,
Frail avalanche of
Want,
Desire,
Emotional destruction —
Take the fucking safety
Off,
And let me live.

Water ebs and flows,
Crashes into,
Drowns, corrodes,
Always finds a way
To go around,
Or through, or over.
Just like life,
Just like love.

Our worlds, a knot,
All bound together.
Brush a string,
Feel it tremble
Through all that we love —
All we kept,
And all we lost.

Dreams to live,
Loving to do —
Who needs sleep
If I have you?

The fuse and the flame,
A dance around the tinder —
Flirting, teasing,
Casting sparks
To burn the house down again.

You and I,
Punch through,
Punch through —
The end is nigh,
Freedom looms.

Loose ends and paper trails,
Through the marshes
To my happy place,
Cut and bruised,
But with a big smile on my face.

Lives entwined
In strands of time
Barely long enough to measure,
Yet, we both already feel
That I am yours,
And you are mine.

Golden dawn in ghostly veil
Sets the frozen earth aglow —
I marvel at its wonder
And know happiness.

All eyes on me,
The stage is mine —
It's showtime.

My patience,
My tolerance,
Deeper than many,
But even I am
Running on empty.

Fate, the divide
Between plans
And intention,
The unguided hand
That decides which desires
Are not meant for the light.

Deliberate steps
Towards a future
Bright in promise —
I will not let
All that once claimed me
Hold me back
From what I want.

Imprints of affection
Echo in absence —
Even not here,
You're everywhere.

Parting with a smile —
The tale of you and I
Will continue soon.
This is not goodbye,
Merely intermission.

Set sail in open waters
Under clouds that fly on by —
Anchors up, nothing will stop us,
But these waves may take a while.
