O Goddess of Freedom

 It is as if everything else has slept...

Many of memories forgotten and lost,

The mates that were,

The things done long and not long before

This freedom restored.

The moon and I,

There's none less free than who.

Stars are just stars and the moon, a moon.

For deeds cannot dream what dreams can do...  

Fierce was the flame while it lasted,

Heart of my heart,

Pain of my pain,

Have I offered thee .. 

Goddess of freedom

Aphrodite, restore...

Goddess of freedom and life-loving,

As the daisies run on the dunes to sea

Shall over the world my soul go free.

And over the world to sing and roam,

To dance and eat,

Make glad my feet,

To be carefree and run as the winds do, soft and fleet.

With this freedom, restore

Life to the limbs of me... 

Cast me to the core.

Goddess of freedom,

Now I know how good it is to be forgotten and forget.

To forget the friendships, the hardships and all the people you wish you never met...

In these moments, 

To think of life is sweet.

The shackles fall and drop about one's feet.

Now it seems the world and life are all complete...

As I stand at the grave of everything lost, dreaming of what I will do.

Now that I am free,

Goddess of freedom,

Cast me to the core.

Fallen Flame

I will not carry your heart from the flicker

For my heart's demise is what you cost..

I will not lose my mind or my eyes

Four hundred and fifteen times

Or drawn in depression 

Or sit in the comfort of sharing the woes of our two paged love story

I will go bankrupt of sorrow or thoughts of you

And be happy, 

That I know.

I will be doing this alone

As I have no twin soul or twin flame 

For impatient hearts, indecisive minds

And narcissistic men.

I will follow to the flames

And drag you back with fumes in it.

I will forget our meadow,

Where we used to roam 

Where we used to laugh and smile and dance and lay under the candle light and forget all the troubles of life

But one thing I will never forget?

A thing you will never ever know......

Dear friend

Dear friend,

I don't think you will ever fully understand 

Just how you have touched my heart

How truly special you are

And all the love I have to give....

Like a tree planted in desert land 

You stayed through bad days and stormy nights

And grew with me through whatever seasons came...

Dear friend,

To me, you'll never be old

Through winters cold and summers hot,

You will always be a love I want to hold...

Dear friend

You are my needs answered

A field in whom I saw with love and imperfections and reap with Thanksgiving 

My board and fireside

In you, my trust resides..

Through the bashful nights of November and the forceful light of summer

You never left my side.

I love you

Not only for what you are 

But for what I am when I am with you.

For what you are making of me,

I love you because you have done more than any creed could have done.

Dear friend

As I write

I think awhile of you

And as I think,

Your love to me is a world

Only meat and sweetest drinks 

And a close connecting link between earth and kingdom come.

Dear friend

I just want to say I love you in ways that I cannot express and I am grateful to have you a friend.

Dear love

Dear love

I seek to return to thy alcove

As softly as browned-eyed angels rive.

To give thee my kisses and heart as cold as the moon and deathly as the crimson tide...

Dear love

you have left me in unknown ways without companion

And my mind to woe as my life lies in fortune's hand....

The night,

It is a great thing

A great thing to me,.with candles lit, I reminisce the nights of bliss we lay with bodies craving the other and our hearts in love revelry as we kissed...

Dear love,

None of them have brought forth that joy

The night or day

As they come pale as season grieves...

Dear love, 

How did I love thee?

To the depth, breadth and height my soul could reach...

To the level of everyday's quiet need,

By sun and candle lit,

With my childhood's faith

Dear love,

I love thee with a love I seemed to lose.....

Lost to life's uncertainties and words that end
