IN PURSUIT OF BUTTERFLIES
lips upon her skin
in pursuit of butterflies...
fluttering inside
taking breath away
as fingers stir up their wings...
thrillingly they rise
her body follows
their exuberance of flight...
shaking with delight
|
|
PAIN BORNE IN SILENCES
cannot be denied
ache of an absent lover...
pain borne in silence
|
|
WHY THE POET SPEAKS
you are the reason
purpose hidden behind words...
why the poet speaks
|
|
RELEASE YOUR PHOENIX
strain against your chains
seek to release your phoenix...
together we can
|
|
YOU WILL NEVER KNOW
stepping from the light
you dare to test the darkness
with me as your guide
