Sometimes, it is as though
I am an empty vessel
Filling water
Into a gaping sea,
Until I am dissolved
By the bitter saltiness
Devouring
My quenching Heart.

An intrusion on the Heart’s Solitude
Love is an intrusion
On the heart’s Solitude,
A luxurious pause
Before the parting
Of waves
Into ocean.
A winter of colorless trees
My heart was a winter of colorless trees
Where Nothing remained unquestioned
But a constant Giving
Of What I so yearned to receive.
Two lonely Beings
Does love only originate
In a profound feeling of utter
Aloneness, or is it an isolation
of two lonely beings
Looking for God in each other?
Tonight I am a hunter
Tonight I am a hunter
Tracking your every movement
But you are a poacher
Looking for a moment of light
To fill your darkness.
Rooted to each other
So this is how we stay
Rooted to each other
Hanging
Like climbers
Unto a roof
That keeps slanting
Further and further
For each year
We grow apart.
My unweeded Edges
Your surface is spilling over
My unweeded edges,
Caressing the curves
Of my flustered mind
Pulling me into,
Murky dark places
I cannot see
for all the glittery
Sunshine.
And I stagger and fall.
I fight your darkness
As all the glitter slips away.
But it is then I realize
That you are just a river
And I am the one
Looking into you.
