"Sleepless"

 Sleepless

 I feel your mind

 It does not sleep

 I hear your thoughts

 Crawl up inside me

 I feel your hand

 Beneath the sheets

 You toss and turn

 But don’t move at all

 Your hand grasps

 For mine

 You need to feel

 Some life

 You feel so cold

 So alone

 Although you lie

 By my side

 So distant

 You become

 So far your thoughts

 Can chase you

 How lost in them

 You find yourself

 I can take you in

 Hold you

 Close

 To my skin

 Feel the warmth

 That I give

 Feel the warmth

 From within

 My thoughts

 Weave through yours

 Your eyes yield access

 To bring you back

 With each breath

 That we take

"Our Moments"

 Tell my secrets to the wind
 Tackle the thoughts inside my head
 Voices lead me
 Point and counter point
 Passed the moments we have been

 Our silence meets
 At point of virtue
 Our words to each
 Speak our wicked ways
 Our minds are tangled
 Such thoughts conceived
 Moments, Sensations
 Timelessly weaved

"Tangled"

TANGLED

 I lie alone in my bed
 I think of you
 Tangled in my sheets
 I think of you

 I count the mole and freckles on your body
 I feel your hot breath
 On my skin
 I think of you

 I see the scar on your thigh
 I stretch my arms to feel you near me
 I tangle further in my sheets
 I think of you

"To Live Again"

 TO LIVE AGAIN

 In the dark of the night

 In the thin hours of the morning

 Alone with my thoughts

 Alone with the burden

 I’ve been here before

 Now I lie alone

 I’ve seen myself die

 Do I have the strength to live again

 Should I think only of myself

 Or do you wish this of me too

 I don’t know what to do

 I feel myself shaking

 To live once again

 Are they my dreams

 Or my nightmares

 Or just one in the same

 Do I plunge in again

 Throw my ashes to the wind

 Let the sea cleanse my soul

 Wash one life away

 Continue in another

 It is mine to take

 It is yours to give

 Do I take the chance

 Is it there to begin with

 Do I have the strength to live again

 Will I feel it happen

 I just dream of something

 In a hope that will never come

 I just dread of something

 In a hope that it is going to come

 I hold my breath

 I can breathe again

 Anticipation of my only prayer

 Please, I hold my breath

 Let me live again

 I am cold

 I am alone

 I am alive

 To my knowledge

 I breathe

 Lost to all the lessons I have learned

 I must learn again

 I am alive

 Though the ones that I love

 The faces I knew

 Drift passed me unfeeling

 The memories are mine

 I do not recall

 They elude me

 Though my presence

 I feel is real

 In the dark of the night

 In the thin hours of the morning

 Alone with my thoughts

 Alone with the burden

 I’ve been here before

 Do I have the strength to live again

"For Me, For You"

FOR ME, FOR YOU

So soft of voice

So warm to the touch

Do I trail off in your presence?

Your breath completes my thoughts

Arms around me

Complete my shell

In your comfort

I fall

In your thoughts

I lie

In your eyes, such loss

In your heart such hope

For me, for you

Never apart

Someday together

Someway

Does that scare you?

Does that tear your

Understanding?

Something so vast

Beyond me, beyond you

So empty

Tipped and spilt

Find the future

In what is now before us

For me, for you
