A Dance of a Lifetime

As we kissed the sun of our past sorrows,

We moved forward,

Remembering this moment for a lifetime,

The day our lives changed for the better,

The brighter future along the horizon,

Looking up into the sky that day,

We raised our hands and screamed of freedom,

Free of the chains that bound us to misery,

Smiles took over our faces,

Our tears dried for the first time in years,

Our hearts opened, and our walls crumbled,

The clouds moved to the motion of our bodies,

Dancing with the wind of a song sung by our souls,

Pictures scattered along the pavement,

Weeds died and flowers bloomed,

Trees swayed and the birds flew,

Letting go of the silence that kept us alone,

Painful words turned into admirations,

Our hands met and turned into holding hands,

And we chose the path to walk together called a Lifetime..

A Song

Today I heard a song, that reminded me of you today,

Reminded me of our love.

The look on your face in the morning,

You told me you loved me,

But, then you faded away....

I can still feel you next to me,

Sometimes I wear your clothes when your gone,

I can smell that bittersweet kiss,

Your name always on my lips....

Your smile lit up my world,

Your look upon my face,

Dancing around me like a fool,

Kissing the air with no care...

Never thought we'd say goodbye,

That our memories would become a past,

Now, I look at pictures to remember,

The complicated momments,

The undone words that were never said...

My closet becomes my dwelling,

My heart scarred with you,

Silence as I pray upon my future,

What if's take over me...

Today, I heard a song that reminded me of you....

Shattered

.............................................................

Tattered Pages

Disappearing into the distant memory of you,

Touching the pavement with my soul,

Deeper I sink into the long words of my sigh,

Dreaming of the day that it will weaken,

The desire of my depression,

The dark side of my being,

Where the happiness fades away,

A tempered smile frowns,

Compelled to yell and cry,

Pain the rips through me and into you,

Can you handle that side of me too?

No words exchanged except the bitterness of a look,

Silence as the glass breaks along the anticipated mistakes of us,

Prevailing our lives wishes and grieving our past exes,

Compelled to lie and comfort my soul,

Pain that sinks into you and through me,

Can you handle that side of me too?

Soured reflections as I pass the windows of our being,

Broken hearts tattered along the photos of us,

Torn sheets of our once entangled passion,

Compelled to breathe in silence,

The Pain that beats within my body and yields my smile,

Can you handle this side of me too?

Habit or Love

Beneath your lies I want to believe that you are true,

That you love me for who I am,

That I am the one that you want to be with,

This feeling makes me feel that I am nothing short of lust,

Or that familiar habit you call love….

Fallen Heart

Silently walking through you,

Near your every breathe,

I feel your every touch,

When I am gone, you are near,

Quietly running my hands across your body,

Your eyes are closed and you cannot see me,

My tears fall and touch your heart secretly,

My fallen heart is compelled to stay,

Caught between two different lives,

Seeking the truth of what could have been or what may be,

I lay here, naked and cold,

Sheets blanket my soul,

Obscurities dance across my walls,

Longing for the brief goodbye and the ever so common hello,

My fallen heart is gone,

I am released from the pain of my past dreams,

Love has bitten my soul,

Embracing my forgiveness,

My tears are drying,

My walls are broken,

My heart has been seized and mended...

Deuce

Like a splinter in my hand,

A cut deep and a soul wounded,

I breathe thinking I did the right thing,

I let you go, because I loved you.

Now lost in my sorrow and regret,

The wound wallows in my soul,

I feel broken, forgive me.

Impervious Stare

Bitter shadows dance across my heart,

The jaded memory of you and I,

As I let my heart go into the wind,

Embracing the future with a smile,

Guilded from the lights above,

I unbind myself from you,

Past moments are brought to the present,

That silent breath awakens my heart,

Your hand upon my breast of movement,

Lifted the pain of your nearest look,

The long lasting sigh of your stare guides me away,

Tears fall apart from my face,

Cracked skin begins to heal,

The bittersweet of goodbyes fades,

Light has blanketed the darkness,

A door has closed and a new one opens,

Beneath my feet the sand collects between my toes,

The air cyclones around me,

My hair wraps around my body,

Goosebumps form and fade,

Light shines upon the blank words of my decolorized face,

A look that will no longer embrace mine,

A heart that will no longer touch mine,

I fall to my knees,

Pulling the knife out of my back,

Hands upon the ground grasping for eternity,

Fear has fallen, Chains have broken,

My Smile has returned.
