Running In Circles

So, the obvious 'comes apparent;
Does this change 'nything in truth?
For our friendship leaves the aberrant
‘Fore I come home to Duluth

And I found another lover
And your soul and mine depart
And my freedom, I recover
And I find again my heart

There was never any answer in the minds rejecting love
There was never any truth in those blue skies, so far above
There was only I and you, two lonely souls stood, side-by-side
There were only two hearts calling, though but one love could abide

And I found this other lover
And your soul and mind depart
And my freedom, I recover
And I offer him my heart

So, the obvious 'comes apparent,
And all life is changed, in truth
And a friendship dies, inherent,
For each choice made in Duluth

But, I found my only lover
Ne’er his soul and mine depart
And our freedom, we’ll recover
As I share with him my heart

There was never any answer in the minds rejecting love
There was never any truth in those blue skies, so far above
There are only I and you, together: souls here, hand-in-hand
There are only two hearts ‘twining, exploring love and life, unplanned

Just reach out and touch me…

The sun shines outside upon wavering leaves,

Clothes spin rhythmically in the hall’s machine,

And the kitten climbs over the hills of my hips,

Massaging tiny claws into my slender waist:

Intoxications, all, thick with poignant quiet,

Tense with the slipping void,

Tight with the ticking of time,

Deep in the afterglow of you.

A chill blankets me,

I curl into the shadow of a new-old energy;

Visions billow behind closed eyes,

Dreams-wants-desires filling the miles between:

Sailing the seas, spilling joy with the sun’s kisses;

Careening steadily through trees on mountains high;

Speeding on lost highways under the moon’s laughing grin;

Growing the magic of love with mutual friends…

So many seeds we planted in our late-night meeting,

Wishes dangling like fire-lit lamps on our path;

When you are ready to dine on peaches and pears,

When you choose to wake or fall into a dream:

I will be there to taste your lips again,

To breathe fire into your heart,

To wander far into our world,

To be the never-ending beauty that is ours.
