Images bombard me,
plumes of butterflies
whenever I see
your beautiful face
All day long
The fear evaporated,
obstacles pushed away
knowing the inevitable truth
Drinking in every encounter,
awash with certainty
Breathless with anticipation
I yield.

I have tried to keep the door shut
but your eyes have wedged it open
Pools of beauty,
drawing me in
I see right through you
My transparency probably equal
My will to run,
to resist,
much greater
Angst about disruption
disorder
chaos
Fear of hurt,
everything that could go wrong
a barricade to all that might be perfect
Yet there is a song in my heart
placed there by you
So whilst the ending is unknown
and the beginning is in question
I cannot deny
that with you
there is a story waiting to be told.

Blooming Wildflowers by franky242 courtesy of http://www.freedigitalphotos.net
Encrypted messages deciphered
Coding unravelled
Polished signs
Sparkling paths
Carpets of wildflowers
Sunbeams
Trailing willow leaves
Shimmering waters
Crystal reflections
Self-reliance
Strength
Love thyself.

Reed by Vlado courtesy of http://www.freedigitalphotos.net
As I sit here now
do the stars glint for me?
Shimmer their beauty
The dead night lit by diamonds
Blackness that once matched my heart
My beat, my soul
glows with love
Time shifts, a chasm before me
To step back to yesterday
A world whiled away in an instant
Or to bend … a reed folding into tomorrow
‘Tis hardest staying still
Fixed in my disillusions
Battling the desire
to have someone by my side
A protector, lover of life
of me
Arms will wrap around me
reassurance will envelop again
This purgatory will dissolve
and stoke the fires of passion
nurture that which was once broken
One fine day.

Heart Shaped Chocolate by nixxphotography/FreeDigitalPhotos.net
Your chiselled face,
eyes of gold.
Your hands,
holding my heart for sacrifice.

Sunset And Seascape by Chaiwat/FreeDigitalPhotos.net
Rose petals fall from the sky,
fragrant teardrops
The sun sets on the horizon,
an orange haze
Leaves whirl upwards,
pulled to the heavens
Everything upside down,
but beautiful
As it should be

A Study In Pink by Maggie Smith/FreeDigitalPhotos.net
A sonnet to make your heart sing,
a verse to fill your head with dreams
Cherry blossom falling,
raining like confetti
A dewdrop on an open rose,
glistening as a new day dawns
Rose From The Garden by Bill Perry/FreeDigitalPhotos.net
An iris swaying in the summer breeze,
as blue as an azure sky
A fairytale ending,
soulmates bonded for eternity
But my eyes are stinging,
swollen from tears
I wish you love and hope,
but I cannot write something beautiful today
