The Eye of Your Storm









Your love
devoured me
like a sirocco
rakes the desert

gathering sand
shifting
my desire
~~


blistering vapors rose
with passionate debris
scattering eternity

intensity
magnetic
funneled me
through

the eye of your storm
~~~

lost in the whirl
emotions surreal
a twisting
roaring moan

churned my soul
as thunder rolled
dark clouds
across a moon
too frail to shine
~~~~

while the wind
wrung it's hands in despair
weeping grandfather tears

aware

you would abandon me
broken
first sun up
past silence.

To Find You





A deep yearn swells inside
the pale moon on my face
with enough energy to burst
me like a meteor shower
across the canvas of my dream
to find you

Oh yes to find you
and rest
your wandering soul
with mine

In another place
another time
we held each other
in the mist shrouded hills
of Connemara
daring the morning to break
through our promise
of eternal love

In the instant I lost you
heaven's light burned out
tripping over
the gravity of love
I roam
secluded darkness
turning it
inside-out
shaking it
upside-down

always to find you
falling out
of my dream.
