In the shadows



Do you know how it feels 
to be
embraced by the shadows?
You think the fun is in the light?
but in the darkness
we are invisible

You don't want to see
what hides out in here
Takes a man without fear
to look beyond the light
and feel what hides
within the night.

In here there are no eyes to see.
in here no ears to hear.
steps taken so lightly~
sound swallowed
by silence
not wanting to be heard.

You wouldn't want to venture in
for fear it would consume you
The shadows hide behind open doors
they sneak up behind you
Don't turn 
you won't find them
the shadows 
find you.

Oh my, Yes please

Oh my God,  It's been awhile Everywhere you touched Screamed "Yes" for Miles My toes just curled... Oh, you've done that before? for me, that was new. My legs haven't tightened so much Really?  you do have a magic touch. "Um, may we do it again?" Of course, yes please... that was amazing yes, yes I'll squeeze Oh wait, don't let go I think I'm still  ~reacting~  We should make a note  to go there again... Wait, what? You believe once is enough? I think you're wrong! I'd like to dispute...  I think I'd like another No, I know I want another Lets get real close touch me here Oh yes for sure there can you get closer still? O'come on I need you  at least once more Really, You give in? I so enjoy the way you tease. Am I that easy? Oh, you're just enjoying what you've done! Either way What an amazing way to "play" today!

Your soul to keep

I want to float:  with the wind I want to sail  on top of the ocean, glide next to the waves before their  anger is broken. I want to feel: the beat of a warm heart pounding within my chest to a rhythm  that knows no pain. I want to touch: beauty in a kiss tears of joy happiness in love a kind mind a true embrace. I want to hear: lost words never spoken promises that will never be broken. I want to fly: spread unseen wings feel the sun heat each feather warm my blood  lift my soul inhale, breath, jump I'll fly 

Life

A fish who longs to be in water A bird who can not wait to fly A snake who wishes to recoil  A mole searching for better ground Sky so lifted to give space Moon afraid to show his shape Hides behind a blanket of night Stars blink to share their light Oceans anger crashes down Beaches lying with the sand Rocks climb to stand tall Wind watches them all fall  Mountain tall enough to roar Let loose his inner being Earth was burned to begin again. Gave life back to the living.
