Sometimes, I lose myself
In you,
I forget the intricacies
Of my own soul, and I
Become a solitary
Pilgrim searching
Your veins
For my purpose.

Stranded in Your Love
I am stranded
In your love
Surrounded by
Your oceans
That always seem to be
Caught in a storm.
Every day ,
I scan your horizon
for a boat, even though
I don’t even know
If I want to be rescued.
Moving Pieces
Was I moving pieces
Before
To fit you in,
Or were you the one
To make me complete?
I limped a bit when you
Met me,
Where you the crutch
That healed me, or
The one that made
Me afraid?
Your Shadow
Your shadow
Is casting a disproportionate
Reflection on the brick wall
Of our prison. It is as though
A piece of you is not here
With me. Like…
You cut it loose to find
Freedom
Somewhere else.
In Your Gentle Presence
In your gentle presence
My secluded wings
Can embrace freely
Worlds away.
Forced into a Storm
Your love is
Like an alien prayer
Meant only for me,
Forcing me into a storm
With an ally
I don’t even know.
Are you the black tide pulling me under?
You are a complicated puzzle with too many parts
Playing pieces to fit with my heart
Didn’t think we needed the underground to stand
Didn’t think I needed your parachute to land.
Are you the black tide pulling me under?
Or a landslide pushing me out of my mind?
Are you working overtime to build a bridge to my heart?
Or are you a hurricane tearing me apart?
Figments of your paradise on the ground
But all I do is hiding in your smile
Jumping craters with claws and stakes
Will you catch the landslide,
or let me crash and break?
Are you the black tide pulling me under?
Or a landslide pushing me out of my mind?
Are you working overtime to build a bridge to my heart?
Or are you a hurricane tearing me apart?
