Never Always

I think about you all the time now.... . .

------------ my pain in your absence only leaving me when I allow myself

the totality of beauty in everyone........ everything, in existences

.........................to breathlessness - ---- -

------ aware I really know not you........... but your

happiness............... your burning desire.............

With Each Other Why

WHY is it I write my poetry.............. . - - -

- AFTER I've realized that neither the words will make you love me, nor the effort to conjure any incantation will make you appear at my door? ,,,,,,, - - - - BECAUSE I'm driven by the the agony of yearning to create a place/state where the overwhelming beauty of those few precious moments with you ......................

-- might continue to somehow exist for your perfect joy/harmony ...............

and dwell as close to your love as possible for it is here I also give most truly my light - - ----- .......................... ................. we are each other ..........

Sacred We Become

......amidst passion compassion love romance - - - -  -- - - - - - - while the angel of consuming devotion wings  a hole in my heart your leaving emptied at the same time breezes young first love crushes to rapture..................time is pausing ................     - -------  ----.........        - ~~~~~~~ and becomes light from the one second eternal your two lips upon my cheek became/is/becomes sacred

Love We Breathe

.................there are times obvious .......... someone in pain, confusion, or bereft...........needs clearly speaking between your souls..............friend stranger no matter as caring floods wash boundaries into oblivion of compassion - -- - - -- -

............ there are times obvious..............my confused pain, bereft of so many, is healing in those spaces I reach for her so intensely as caring floods wash boundaries into oblivion of others' Peace ..........warmly flooding my existence...............yet while she is not there being change............ - -

- - ......she is change, - - -

..........enchanting me eternally so I breathe
