When We’re Together,

You & I,

Everything around us is fuzzy,

My mind stops whirring,

Time stops ticking,

The tap stops dripping,

My anxiety stops stressing,

The Earth stops turning,

Clouds stop moving,

Winds stop whispering,

My heart stops breaking...

And all that I can focus on

is your smile that keeps growing,

your hair that keeps falling over your eyes,

my heart that keeps beating,

our lungs that keep breathing,

and your hand that tightens around mine...

From Berlin~ she ran

Not ever lookin’ back

Soon she was in Brussels

Where she rested for a while

Then later made it further

To the city of Love, Paris!

It was there that she met him

She fell head over heels.

He had sang songs to her

& read many sweet poems.

Telling her that she was his muse

In all of his wonderful stories....

They had great chemistry;

A love unlike any other.

But one day— he found out

That she was from the other side

He told her to pack her things

She carried her stuff, his pennies, too.

Her leader asked her for a report

She only handed him a single note.

He stared at the note in wonder...

She explained to him what it was..

He asked if she could write some—

She raised her brow & said- ‘‘I’ll try.’’

If my heart is broken

Then let cry

Just for a minute or forever

A brave or coward

No one can tame it

If crying can set me free

Then let it be

Tears are reminiscent of who we are

When the "small voice" prevail over the ego

Tears can heal

Whenever you feel overloaded or outraged

Tears will bring you peace

In times of joy and hilarity

Tears are salty and cold regardless of the emotions

A sign of humanity and compassion

Do we learn how to cry or do we cry to learn?

We wait by the water

& spy something thrashing in the sky

The boat is sick

I wait for a healing oar and know

I’m brewing watercress tea

But hope prepares a fire

& braves the water when it slept

& oils the engine

The boat walked

I comb with needles of words

I float out with the breath of morning

Coffee

I sit up high on Empire State Building

Legs dangling

High heel pointed

Like a dagger

At passing

Ants

Freeing the wind as its tail is sunk

In mudgrass and I run,

Shoes disappearing as the

Earth turns

Square

This is before trees fall upon pages

And mute the birds

But the ground was never rooted

And the sky could

fall down

She placed several candles by the lad’s bed. The lad just continued on in his own thoughts & dreams.

A moonbeam landed on the lad’s forehead.

’Ah—’the elderly woman uttered to herself, ‘it’s time.’

A mighty burst of wind came from the lad’s bedroom window & blew out the candles. The woman closed her eyes & when she opened them~ her whole body was ablaze.

‘From the ashes of my spirit’ the woman chanted, ‘now my rebirth shall be continuous for many eons.’

The elderly woman burst into a puff of grey matter & was moved toward the lad. She cackled and then smiled as her clan’s task was completed with her final breath.

After a little while the lad woke up with a start. He yawned & stretched his arms.

When he started drifting back to dreamland, he could not sense that something had taken control over his body. Right before he fully closed his eyes, they had changed from his own natural golden like colour to a dark grey.

Ending up scoping the infinite where there is a confusion between me and my soul.

Embracing the taste of freedom and the bitterness of injustice. That's me and my soul.

Selling a dream that I can't afford. That is me and my soul.

Waking up with yesterday pains and regrets. That's me.

Willing goodness, amelioration and elevation. That's my soul.

Looking for understanding, answers and clarity. That's You!
