once chance


Dreams and aspirations roil delinquent time,
but idle consternation is sure to set the crime.
Delve deep, once more, beneath the scarlet sky,
one chance, now lost, has welled the azure eye.

Empty Embrace

Empty embrace

I reached, but she was no longer there,
and as my reward 'twas an empty hollow embrace,
these fragile hands no longer feel her supple silky hair.
Would I awake from a dream bereft of her sweet grace?

Alone, like the planets that revolve around the sun,
some with moons, some with none,
yet all alone are they in their darkest void of space,
never slowing, never yielding, till their path is done.

Lost souls wandering, connecting with only means
of simple communication, like light beacons between the stars,
some understood, others pass us by, missing our horizon,
until the heavens unite our worlds, a journey ever far.

Woven Aural Shades of Green

Woven Aural Shades of Green
Aural shades of recumbent visions never seen,
mix the message of my mind between white and green;
Will she remember my thoughts never had,
perplexed as I am, uncertain when I'm glad,
surreptitiously inventing notions of thoughts foreseen
