A Million Little Pieces

Fragments cold
Stories old
Tainted snowdrops; frozen teardrops
Stories cold
Fragments old.

Broken pottery
Unspoken mysteries
Splintered footprints; bloodied fingerprints
Mysteries unspoken
Pottery broken.

Dusty floors
Unhinged doors
Withered leaves; insidious disease
Unhinged doors
Dusty floors.

Moonbeam river
Sunlight quiver
Caterpillar to butterfly; healing touch – Giver of Life
Moonbeam quiver
Sunlight river.

The Story of You and Me

This is the story of you and me
A moment in time
Fleeting
Glimpse

A story of chance encounters
Windows and Doors
Open
Closed

A story of friends and lovers
Rainbows and Rain
Promises
Made.

-------------------------------------------

This was the story of you and me
Lost moments in time
Maybe
Never

A story of chance encounters
Hallways and Mirrors
Strangers
Blind

A story of friends and lovers
Soul mates forever
Fantasy
Mine.

Broken Wings

The dead wood slowly drifted
Towards sandy shores,
Her journey having lifted
Her heart - broken, sore.

The white sands softly shifted
Protected and warmed her core,
The weeds now dry and wilted
Snow white roses began to grow.

The sun he finally found her,
Shy amidst the bloom,
He kissed her tenderly – left her
With a smile and a dreamy tune.

By night the rose she blossomed,
Became one with the moon,
Her fragile wings – they opened,
She flew to heights anew.

The eclipse came as expected,
Earth – she shadowed the moon,
A bit of driftwood nestled,
On her frozen shores - spelling doom.

The sun he found her frozen,
Lost after the alien dawn,
He warmed her till he’d broken,
The ice and her surface – torn.

The moon she glided swiftly,
Powerful, feline, sure,
To the sun through pathways misty,
Alas, he shut the door.

The moon now back in her garden,
Single white rose amongst blood red,
The three fates’ sighs heavy laden,
As they furiously mend the thread.

Let Love

In the forests of my dreams,
Love - she found me.

Muted dread and silent steel,
No matter - she held me.

Let her in, let her out,
Forget her? Oh, I could not.
And so I let the silence speak,
Held my tongue - wise indeed.

In the mirror of my dreams,
Love - I found her.

With steady hands and new belief,
As one - We found me.
