Words I mouth

 

Words I mouth,

along lines of gold.

Blooming rose

gathers dew of song.

 

Harp strings pluck

moist tones

fading dark shades

of my soul.

 

Eastern drums pound

emotions flowing

dreams through red waters

of my body.

 

Celtic horns sound

green twisting winds,

magical mist

melts scars of the heart.

 

Words I mouth,

inside no sound.

Lyrics sung within,

beating flesh hall.

Journey of Romance

 

Young mind glows

a velvet sky with

passing clouds of fushia --

adolescent romance of an

untouched heart swelled with

tones of boyish dreams,

wishes to an orchid of lilacs,

conversing with mirrors of the soul.

 

"Why does love bleed

promises of fantasia?"

A boy grown, old-fashioned.

A man unsown, truly cautioned.

 

Tiny shards of cold stone

ripped through trust and devotion,

spinning inside love's core,

rotting old dreams, waving good-bye.

Gentle hands of passing time, heal

torn bits of heart,

grinded powder passion,

blown through windy memories.

 

Sewn hopes cross over,

holding heart's hand,

finding beautiful brown eyes

along this journey of romance.
