Boyfriends Bike


Remember me?
we were kids really
your sly smile
with wicked blue eyes
bike riding to my house
excited with your news
of baseball training camp
holding my hand
a brush of a kiss
across my cheek bone
whilst saying goodbye
just a summer apart
you say…..
not knowing
my childhood love
for you
would forever depart.

at dawn



When sleep evades me
a design
for a new dress is made
carefully sewn
ready for
when I leave home.


I start my
little white car
acceleration
always a rush
the sun
I barely feel
as I drift
towards the sea


From a water of blueness
I feel the crystal white sand
the heat of the sun
the powerful waves
crashing down
enticing me
to the dark caves
where I might find
another soul
who calls
this paradise home.

Fast Cars


Somewhere in the States
exists an oasis
of fast automobiles
with shiny wheels
a private invite
if only you knew
deep in the forest
hidden from view.

Butterfly in Black



Flying at night
no one can see
their beauty
but me
flying in threes
how they used to be
now just a painted memory.

Leaving London


Before the rain
the sun drenched this town
not likely this time of year
wandering around in my royal gown
tasting London beer
meeting folks
disguised as blokes
my castle so high
must flee
if only for awhile.

Summer for 2



Hot blazing sun
waking up
to another scorching day
it seems it will never rain
whispers she
revel in the moments
of remoteness
says he.

Forgiveness



What keeps you awake
is your soul
protecting your heartbreak
their spewing of bile
with the mask of a smile
that makes you feel 
completely unreal

try to surrender
your mind to peace
& the flood of anxiety
will cease

forgiveness

will lift that
burden of hate
& give you faith

the power to move on
to trust another soul
to someday bond.

Night Driving



to nowhere
to see no one
just driving
I pass by
and glance up
to
remember
another time
when
there was
 someone to see
somewhere to be
before you left me.

A Charmed Life



The jingling sound of her charms
forever takes me back in time
the dangling icons
making me wish
they were mine.
I got my wish
at the end
 of her time
too sad
for her to know
how her charms
make me think of her so.

The ghost of me....




What I once was
was what I hide
until I met you
& became your bride
Time has passed
& the ghost of me
comes alive.
