I wish to live my life in divine alignment

Filled with gratitude

With peace as my assignment

A light that illuminates each day

No matter how much money

No matter what people say

With someone to hold my hand

Who understands my heart With whom I can thank the Earth

For doing her loving part

A friend who sees me true

Who understands my flaws

A man with whom I can cocreate

A family and a healing spot

Where we can wrap ourselves into each other

Forgetting about our day Sharing dreams of what will be

Trusting what we say

[elementalchorus]

I'd much rather my life be marked By depthless depth from skies above In rooted truth from earth's trust I stand in trine to what is mine A love less seen but known inside In opposition to a sometimes heartless world that encourages the mind

[elementalchorus]

Who cares? If all that I write goes unseen, unheard and forgotten Who cares if all that I am becomes another filtered version of someone elses bottom Why care? When the formation of my words may or may not fit your script. And who cares because the emotion, expression and forgiveness are a tidal wave dispersing ahead a great pioneering ship My characters may have lived or died but it's momentary and just a blip A notch on the universal ride of time and space Remembering and forgetting all at once A slow ponder or a fast pace Noones moving in accordance to a rhythm in my name But a wind blows surely here and there Wretched and then smouldering as she shyly caresses my face and hair Up or down, high or low Makes no matter to mine When all is said and done or rather just begun I'll be perched upon a precipus with stars overhung, swirling and having fun The planets align and so will you and I To forget the forgettable To cherish the unfathomable To stew wildly in the current cosmic story Of this girl or that boy Who tried so hard and found their glory While birds chirp and clouds reunite I'd much rather my life be marked By depthless depth from skies above In rooted truth from earth's trust I stand in trine to what is mine A love less seen but known in time(inside) In opposition to a sometimes heartless world that encourages the mind

[elementalchorus]

Declaration of Well-being

There is joy and there is peace Right behind the discontent In the rinse cycle On repeat I'll keep beating my drum When the chorus subsides When darkness falls and I wish to hide Being one with my choices Means holding myself To positive inner dialogue and soothing voices I'll set my sights on castles Stars that hover, roots that descend Into communion with our great mother In the fortuitous floral rain Of my own self guided gains I trust you Power of pain To weld me to my wishes In the most romantic way

[elementalchorus]

To be found

Shut away Where stones of the past Tuck themselves Neatly beside the other Creating a cavern A shrine here stands The depths of my heart Calling you To unearth the great mystery A life undercover Left undiscovered As meaningless debris

Volumes Autobiographies Portraits and pleas Carried over time and space Arriving safely at your knees

My messenger I a maiden awaiting Rough warm hands Stoking my fires Breathing breathless Affirmations As such a lady requires

Cast the heavens! Part the seas! Unsurmountable Borders worth bending My heart song You’ve been waiting all along To arrive without questioning

Tunes intertwined Our love Not yours or mine Servitude to the highest Morals defined Our love-laugh banter On cue with perfect rhyme

Allow this to prove How empty questions disapprove A head taught Bodies sold and bought Where beyond assimilation Are our wings unclipped and souls uncaught

[elementalchorus]

 I see my heart jump and open when I think of being in the sun and that feeling of connection with earth, with spirit as I indulge in her elements.  I fall into a silent knowing in my memory of doing yoga, where I reach my limits and untangle myself from the memories that bind me in my tight muscles and protective posture.  I’m free, alive, glowing and just right.

You desire to know the art of living? It is contained in one phrase: make use of suffering.

Moonlit Sighs

You didn't know me when I was wild I came adorned in earth Smooth calm pools My eyes smiled at yours and I felt like I arrived Glassy moments where I see Our hearts meet and melt Into inviting fires Where I may burn me down and rise above Ashes that tell me of a time When we were exposed and trying to hide Isnt it enough That in your presence I feel like it's just enough? Simple sounds reverberate Between my heart's longing And the sights that hold your gaze Constant small reminders As the sun sets and rises Folding me back into doubt Wondering when the time will be right The moon smiles at me Tells me to go deep To delve beyond the shadows Where secrets bend and weep

[elementalchorus]

In Due Time

I reach out to touch The finely woven fabric Of my minds eye

Places and times Unreachable in the flesh Touched and half at rest

Sorted and evaluated Measured:. The Weight and worth in heart Calculations precise Figuratively speaking Still attempting to fit such equations Neatly away Into the pockets of flesh That will grow old and fade in time

History will hold in her hands Revelations of a curious soul Painted on the canvas Of decaying bodies Where timeless portraits cannot remain

This tiny stream called I Need not ask permission To remain in rhythm Of loves letting Beyond any sence of consequence Within my hoping and repenting

The tidal wave that pulls me down To taste the bitterness and fear Carries me in due time To where water meets sky Provoking my duality Eternal light will persevere

To surrender and make clear Moments that insult my design Where the Great Mother holds my hand Reassures me in my trying

Unfolding to the wise Waist deep wisdom of my mistakes

Won’t be claiming But redirecting me To the light where I may awake

[elementalchorus]

A heart that knows

I lay on my back feeling my heart know That there is no truth in hiding the ache that tells me you’re too far away

I relax and remember how my words were received by you as I unravelled slowly and safely in your embrace

Without a doubt your love cured me of one question Why we may share such a love and move forward in different directions

There is no answer that diminishes such fate The bed in which I lay is not our bed I put my hand on my heart throbbing and supposing That behind this fierce calling May be more love untouched, untamed and ever growing

[elementalchorus]

Ode to your inability to love me

Sincerely, Thank you for dropping me while my heart was wide open So that the corners melted into blue oceans Waves reaching up my neck and out my throat:  I love you The sky so broad that confusion cannot collect in storm clouds Its just so still I don't know what to do with all this space All I can do now

Is float

Cut Me Out

From your cold hands I feel a pulse Pushing me to the edges of the earth Where birds fly and I wonder for how long

How I adored your mouth and the curl of your lip How you felt between my legs and how you knew I liked the tip

It’s a wonder you could shake me off Change gears and watch me fall I’m bruised and battered but ready for more But your too kind and you’ve locked that door

[elementalchorus]

Submit to Thyself

I have taken off my crown of thorns To reveal that what was once shrouded in metal Has now been melted and reformed

In the fragility of my elegant hands I hold what was was buried deep within our broken plans

Ceilings of cedar painting my skies with the softness of a story in the likeness of a lullaby Whispering through the wind Relaxing with each breath I hear what the world is really made of and how my wonder will never rest

[elementalchorus]

Deny

You are the story that awaits me Unknown in the language of my mind My heart reveals a world that cannot be defined

An unmarked path Winding us up, around and far Revealing our unity beneath the stars

Your heart speaks to mine And this is how I know For no matter how much time passes You are wise to the ways of my soul

I can hear you not far off With another woman Sewing together a "what if" That will never be Because you are without me

I have never been so relaxed Amidst my thoughts I realize the devil is in the knots Of my mind rationalising me away from telling you A truer truth then both of us will admit to

[elementalchorus]

Daydreams to Dust

Pardon my confusion When our hearts met My mind succumbed to delusion

Pardon my frailty For when I am in your presence I am free from my own sanctions

A welcome breeze while the door is ajar I wouldn't have known this feeling If I had done as I had vowed By keeping you at arms length and rather far

I hadn't noticed how pleasantly You softened my brow Hard thoughts melting into soft words of poetry on my backside While your hands got curious While I dismissed the impervious truth

So long since I got used to something Besides what it meant to wonder Stacking one day on the other I await the much expected storms and thunder

Sunshine while I swim Releasing and refraining from internal Self sacrificing scripture

You could be something But how could I know When I look within and ask To find a self defeating blow

[elementalchorus]

Ultimate Surrender

I'm getting used to being touched Handled and replaced A few scratches and finger prints reflecting from different angles All I am about That which amounts To the colossal love I have felt

When a book uncreased Brought satisfaction to my cold and conformed heart Bridged by the gaps I sewed together with sincere interest in  Concealing myself from the deformity of our unity

Painstaking and corrosive To touch An all consuming sobriety When I looked directly at you and saw What I didn't want to see

The shimmer faded in your words That told my heart "No" Don't allow me anymore A hollowness that knocks at my door

White clouds pass Laying on my back Passing as a river promised in passage

Bones soften into the earth The only place they belong Your arms couldn't comfort me like this Your words faltered and missed

Bridging a gap we did A soft blowing wind was the front For ice cold rain to come

Changing and eluding like the weather I couldn't ask myself for much better

Wishing and remaining a wish Long laps of lake shore front laughter;  Doors ajar to allow a peak into the ever after Songs flowing as one Carrying a promise of protection and power

Swirl and unwind  Find and define Calling on my hearts calling To marry me with the Divine.
