64. "Driftwood"

Once upon a time

An angel

Sang us

A bedtime story.

Choose your own

Adventure-

A Wooden

Time machine:

Repair guide for

Each broken

Tender moment.

Lying in

Bed-

We could

Smell

Her hair.

Pregnant

Memories

Spotting stars,

Hypnotized-

We lay

Dormant in the

Deep space of

Our mind.

No reflection,

Vampires

Stripped naked by the

Light-

Pale.

Floating

Moons-

We flushed red,

Hidden

Beneath some

Broken

Vanity.

Thirsty,

Wandering these

Nectarine

Dreams,

Stitching the scent of

Apricot skies.

Immortal

Woods:

Inhaling

The pollen

Of Earth

Breathing

Deep-

To survive.

Understand

The meaning

Of intent-

Each sacrifice

A waking

Contradiction:

Broken Spirals

Trading

Lifetimes

For love.

Because no

One

Will ever

Know.

This

Arrival:

How to build

True home

With you:

A puzzle

Assembled

Piece

By piece-

Steps laid out

By secrets:

Fractal locks-

Autumn

Hieroglyphics

Intertwine.

House of

Wishes,

Dreams cast

Into waters

Long ago...

As tides

Reel in

The queue:

Rising.

New seas

Rain

Gentle:

Waking on

Moonlit

Canopies,

Magnetic-

A dance of

Peace- opal

Water,

Floating out

Within:

Creating new

Doors

In the

Home of your

Heart-

Where light and

Shadow play

This game of

Life, love:

An unarmed

Sea-

You sing out

From my mind:

Sipping

Streams

Tapped

From some vain

Honeyed

Hip.

Glorious-

A world

Alone with you;

Friends-

Inside

Only

For love.

Land of

All

Imagination-

Creating through

Belief:

Planets

Growing moons,

Light-

Playful

Fluid,

Open:

Together,

Balanced:

Free.

Every night,

Revealing magic.

Galaxies unfolding-

Pockets of

Wonder,

Surprise-

Magic hidden:

Locked away

In wooden drawers,

Dreams

Seeping into every

Crevice

Of this heart.

Superstars:

A goddess,

Split verse within

A verse-

Children

Born

Inside this

Deep, dark

Cave-

Fighting.

Finding,

Changing:

Building home-

Whatever light

We find-

Falling into

New form,

Echoing

A wish-

Silence in action:

As tomorrow

Sings alone

With a voice

Gifted to you...

You illuminate me

Always.

Endless

Healing love

Growing

Our time,

Always.
