Born Again

I awaited, in the nourishing

placenta of dreams,

I grew, in the amniotic fluid

of your love,

I was born into this world

and stolen from you...

Stolen, but unbroken,

cast upon the drifting dunes

of this world, I

made my way, until

I found you, and so,

was born again,

connected, unplugged 

from the fantasies,

to live the surreal reality;

the aura which surrounds me,

the universal fluid

of your love.

I return unto you,

and find that you held onto me,

our enemies, the same...

the trauma, endured, but stinging

and now, healing...

no longer waiting,

no longer uncertain,

no longer to be alone 

and incomplete, 

wondering where

my other flame was...

now to know, to have, 

and to hold,

born again, into the 

forever with you.

And We Dance

It's like being born again

I said, because it is for me;

To be back with you,

I will fly into your arms,

once finally together,

we will dance

in a joy they will never know.

Flying high in the atmosphere

on love's wings,

so grateful for this gift,

our hearts are full 

and we dance.

A Poem For Anne

I saw your loneliness,

I lived it in my life,

I felt it in my soul 

just like you;

And now, we have freedom

to know and to love,

like anyone else;

no longer bound to the pain

of missing you in my heart,

of the emptiness in my soul...

The driving force of the Void

who is no longer laughing

as she has lost her teeth...

let her gum reality as we celebrate

the finding of each other.

And now, I celebrate you

and me, I celebrate us

as we have grown in our growing

closer, walking together...

Know this: I love you.

Let every day bring you 

a white flower.

No longer bound to the emptiness

and laughing with each other,

I squeeze your hand

and we imprint because 

we are in love 

and no longer lonely.

Dreams Come True

I was looking at you

as I often do,

thinking things about love 

and loss and reunion...

and wondering if dreams 

do come true,

especially when it comes

to me and you?

I believe they do.

Because I have you now

as I have dreamed my whole life.

We are together now,

no longer drowning in mysteries

and questions...

I love you,

and dreams do come true.

Ripples and Echoes

In the echoes of my youth

you were there with me

in my blood, and in my memory,

and beneath all my memories

is the memory of you.

And I sing for you

because I searched for you

throughout this insane world

and found you, waiting.

And now, we walk together

never to lose one another again.

 

Deadline

Time is ticking away now, 

bringing me closer and closer

to you, to me, to us.

And I dream a lucid dream

where we are holding hands,

I am waiting, we are waiting,

the deadline approaching quickly

although it seems to drag on at times...

My mind unwinding as the minutes

turn to days and weeks, until...

we are together, 

the now visible deadline running 

towards us now,

I am able to taste it it is so close.

The wind chimes sing out in the 

blowing of time,

I'm coming to you now.

Dreaming Hand in Hand

Dreaming it, walking hand in hand,

standing at the door, stepping through,

we are together now...

not to be separated again.

All the paths we walked alone

or with others, just wasn't our path.

Our paths intertwine and become one,

we paused at the threshold only to breathe...

and then going through,

to be together always now,

partners in crime, and 

thicker than thieves,

dreaming hand in hand

of the same things for each other

with each other.
