Leaving

I loved you with my whole heart, from the moment you made it jump when I first saw your frame We grew and laughed and shared and explored My heart expanded more than the capacity to contain the exuberance of joy that is you I loved you with my everything And it wasn't enough
you killed me almost as sure as taking knife to heart or gun to head years and years and years of suffering untouched waiting you slaughtered me

Unspent Dreams

Sometimes it feels like carrying around a suitcase full of empty promises gathering dust and fighting moths

Touch

To touch and be touched is life A baby feels touch and knows security, needs met, learns connection A child feels touch and knows acceptance, love, learns assurance A woman feels touch and knows intimacy, connection, learns love To touch and be touched is living Without it...there is no life Without it...there is no living I am without touch

C.H. The King

One night with the king changes all the other nights forever For the king touches and soothes and whispers He calls the flowers from the fields, the pink and yellow and white One night in the house of the king in a land of oceans and the heart blooms eternally

Memories

Just open your hand and let them come in. Hold them in your palm and think about tomorrow. Then open your hand and let them blow like petals in the wind. Let the swirls or air carry them to fertile ground, planted for another day. Tomorrow, reach out your hand and touch the tree that is memory Feel it's strong trunks and see the roots deep in fertile ground. The soil of love nourishes the memory branches.

Ships

Last night I had a dream of ships passing in the wind All along the ocean blue the ships were sailing, two by two Passing along side by side capturing waves in water wide Last night I dreamed of ships crossing the rounded point Gliding down the gulf of life
