I Imagined..

I imagined tea and toast in the morning

I imagined holidays in Greece

I imagined keeping you warm

Turning you on

I imagined saying I love you

I imagined driving at night

I imagined running in the sun

I imagined you in bed

I imagined red wine on the coast of Barcelona

I imagined playing with you in a cinema

I imagined you're head resting on my stomach

A picnic out in the middle of nowhere

I imagined you with me

I imagined a dream

A reality

Obscene

I imagined a dream

I imagined not waking up

I imagined me reading to you

In the cold ray of light

I imagined living

Whatever it was

It was real

But you woke up

Therein lies the rub

Contre Le Vent

When words just won't do

The page does not talk

Vowels aren't important

We cannot walk

Our voices strain

Against the wind

Again and again

Stumble into nothingness

It's nothing new

Water meadows

That is you

I look to cure my old disease

Smash it in

Yet I am hooked on it

Locked in

Frozen Water

Fozen water has created this marble effect

A sheet between the two of us

Layers and layers to unpeel

Cracked thoughts run through us

Nothing transparent

Everything unsaid

But the words you couldn’t say shined like a light on your face

This feed crackles, not yet the same frequency

Shatters my illusions

Yet it brings me nearer to you

These soundscapes shift

I’m chomping on a love

That’s 2 days old

Stopping everything in its tracks

This is the year we make it right

Head feet first into the snow

Not to let you go

Let’s tread on every puddle of ice

To see if it breaks

Test it with a toe

Screw it, kick it in

Jump in with me

Pour Toi..Mon Papillon

When all is noise
You bring me silence

You roar within me
My beating heart is yours

For a few hours we had silence, if not repose
But we could have love
The noisy sort!

My English rose
I cannot give you up
I want to kiss your white body

You stand
You amazing statue
Carry yourself to me,
Somehow....please

I'll wait in the underground altar
In the depths of grief

And I have carved out a place for you
In the darkest corner of my heart
