In Your Poetic Mind

0 posted 2002-09-17 11:00 PM



Guide  me

River of peace
   my eyes sailing
through empty streets

Dreams    golden nights
   paintings of paris--
I have walked this land

My hands like water

clouds falling through
   blackness

In silence    still --
  ocean blue --
sunsets -  jewels of      lonely skies

Edge walking      in thoughts  my own
I claim  all   however painful, powerful,
                  truthful
manner of grace   long forgotten ticks

    Clocks  bleed    time
each fall   each echo

our lips hushed

    voices beyond control
seperated    love   and do we   hate?

can I be   so human   to remember your breath

cold     worn   on shoulders    eight walking,
among    paths of lost worlds
with no canopys   no shelter


I  just a shell,
     broken wings,
a prayer  in unwanted travel


I let you die  in my mind; in my heart
sweet abondonment   of any rising sun


cry now

your graceful birds
    are looking down upon earth
with raven eyes

can I ever understand


I have been found

I need some distraction
...oh beautiful release
Memories seep from my veins

I remember those days, lost among the colors.

Thank you.

so simple a line, yet again, so strong. to be able to say so much in so little is a talent indeed. breathing as usual.

I let you die  in my mind; in my heart
sweet abondonment   of any rising sun

Your reach so far to a place of reckon,
and always you touch and lay your words down so smoothly.

  Oh Lauren, I so loved this picture of your Paris........

hugging you~
