In the Leaving

Leave me
Find you
Relationship retired
Heart's desire
Will revive
Living alive
Separate space
Running the human race
Crossing the line
Melding the divine
With the mundane
Healed of disdain
On our way
To our enlightened day
Found in the leaving

Love Warrior....for JulieAnn

Pebbles in the pond
Circles spreading out
Love's never wrong
My heart is the scout

Out on the trail in the snow
Discovering the lovelorn
Footprints trail behind as I go 
Healing lost love's mighty scorn

I am a warrior of love
It's my gig...my endless riddle
Melding the below and the above
So love can meet in the middle

I must be on my way
I am needed on my trail
The world's gotten so dull and gray
I move forward, I shall prevail

Bringing my wares to the world market
Out there, real...I am not a pretender
This time I have a particular target
My heart in the ring... the main contender

I shall win the war, I am my own champion
I need a soul walking out there with me
Out of my own way, no more could have been
This mighty heart inside aches to be free

Freed I am, able to walk tall now
Love will find me on my winding road
Love for the one who teaches others how
For love always lightens any load

Pebbles in the pond
Circles spreading out
Love's never wrong
My heart is the scout
 
Out on the trail in the snow
Discovering the lovelorn
Footprints trail behind as I go 
Healing lost love's mighty scorn

Only Life....Unscrpited

The sign is hung
Vacancy
Like the chasm between you and your
ignored soul
vacant
Like the blank stare you see reflected in the
magic mirror
when you can look
vacant

makeup!!!

The hero, hollow, standing on the stage
gulping down the contents
of his gut
Fearing his own shadow.... constantly cast
in the spotlight
he seeks like the needle...
Hushing the noise
inside his own head......
spinning

Round and round we go
Dizzy, am I

There is no stage
Only life....
unscripted

The empty space is felt
I accept it, welcome it....lighter am I
No longer willing to will myself
away for a soul still unknown to the one
who carries it

Ah, the sweet and gentle wind of reality
gracing my face
As I stand alone, strong, balanced
in perfect harmony
with me

Seeing it all clearly, the smoke screen
that is the ornate curtain...
lifted

Knowing I knew you
so well
Better then you know your own you
Some glorious day you would awake to
your own worth
Guess you never got the rewrite

Waiting in the wings for an unrealized
soul, the martyr maiden....whoring out her
mojo
Not the role I signed up for
Agent gets fired today

Live your epic fail
once more....constant
rehearsal
Acting lessons never teach
that there are no
lines in life

Be on your way
May you be safe and held
by someone
you deem as safe
Does such a character exist.....
Unscripted?

Exit, stage leftover, right under
your nose
You never noticed
the tears I
cried
off stage.....
Unscripted

There is no script
Only life......
Unscripted, unrehearsed

Alright, people, that's a
wrap

Love Lives Not...

We have to fill the page

He said to me

Darling, when the truth we engage

 there is no page, don't you see?

 

The page exists only in the fallacy of  false society

Misguided people living on a bed of lies

No page is needed... just sweet synergy

Re-guided people living life in blended stride

 

People who stumble upon similar ground

Be it near or off in the distance

Two souls lost.... can indeed be found

In the beauty of tearing down walls of resistance

 

There is no page to fill, my friend

I said in whispered response like a sage

And he knew there was nothing he had to defend

This is the whispered truth, "love lives not on a page"

Never say Never

http://www.twistedrootstudios.com

Happily never after

The end of a brilliant chapter

Pressed within the pages of our book

Penned of  peace and pain..the love we gave and took

I can never know if never is a word; viable

In a world where all is shape shifting and pliable

Friend...never say never

I can live with happily when ever

I see you smile at me

And  no chains around your heart do I see

I will know you to be seated in your soul

The peace you seek is there... full and whole

Never say never, my love

You forget what the Universe is made of

It is made of always

In all ways

Awake, Mama Earth

Be gone

ice and 

snow

My mama

needs to warm and stretch

Be gone

bitter wind

cutting across her land

Let her thaw

and open

Be gone 

melt and freeze

Let her rivers flow

Let the rapids rage

Let the raptors return

Awake, mama earth

Winter has run its course

The blanket of white removed

as the sun warms away the cold

in our hearts

Be on your way..

chill long standing

Enter the warmth

of Spring

New life pushes against the soil

and must grow

I am on my way to new life

On YOUR Way?

The way we go;

together or alone

The ways we have gone

Before, now, when......how?

Why do I move in the directions I do?

And you in yours?

What force aligns your way with  mine...

What then pulls us apart...

is it the same.....opposing or connected

It matters not

The way we go is the way we choose regardless of the cause

Be it "forced" upon us or gifted to us

We own the feet and the intention that

propel us into the wave of the way

Are you going your way?

Are you aware of the choices you are making?

Or, have you given your power to the

way of another?

 Gaze down for a brief aware moment

Are those your feet down there?

Or do you see the trodden soil of another

as you walk obediently behind them?

Allow YOUR way

it is the only true home

your feet shall ever 
KNOW

Your way is........

YOUR path

Saying Goodbye

Tears of Release

I release you

honoring the hours spent

in embrace

tasting your kisses bitter sweet

I knew time was

our enemy

and you would stay

only briefly

Changing me

slightly

and I you, 

greatly

Knowing our moments

were numbered

union formed easily

in the premonition of death

And... knowing you would

leave

did not stop the wound from 

forming

Yet, it halted the

wound from

leaving its scar

 what's left is respect for our trying

Be on your way

and I, on mine

will recall bitter sweet

moments and kisses

In those moments

I shall honor 

what once was

and no longer...is
