Or I am coming clean
Or maybe I’m just Alice
Dreaming somewhere in between
But the wardrobe door’s still open
White pebbles line the ground
The light outside is shining
What’s lost can all be found
So teach me something of the soul
A little something most don’t know
I’ll grow wild like a child
As the bell inside me tolls
I don’t need your validation
I won’t hear your wrong from right
The deepest truth I’ve ever known
Speaks to me from inside
To your call
I’m a wild one
Standing tall
You’re a flower
Don’t you know
You don’t need me
To feel whole
Narcissus, take your
So called love
Pull it inward
Rise above
We were all here
Meant to shine
Go find your soul
I will find mine
If only
Just
To pierce
The Veil
The world doesn’t
Need
More cynics
A bride washed
Clean
Is an Angel
In between
I found a secret language
In the garden of a child
The tender-hearted rhyme
Seemed a lot like mine
So I listened close to hear
The bells ringing all around
Angels whispered in my ear
I too would find my crown
A seed was planted
Once upon a time
Beneath the weary waves
In the little mermaid’s shrine
A face that dared to look
Deep inside my eyes
Waited for me there
Waited deep inside
A double-sided mirror
Hid a lover I once knew
Who floats just like the wind
Whose shadow is his crew
So I journeyed far below
Not afraid to lose the road
I wished to stay forever
To release my heavy load
The dark water is a danger
For all heavy-hearted men
Who never loved another
As his mother once loved him
So I let the romance die
That lived willful in my mind
And journeyed to the forest
And there I bid my time
A hopeful girl will wonder
What life does have in store
As she feeds the seed some water
Stays near it ever more
But you can hold her
For her soul seeks
Space and depth
Her love flows
Like the ocean
Waves of wonder
From her chest
To come together
For a moment
Embrace the beating
Of their hearts
To wade forever
In the water
Seven seas
That never part
If forgotten
That sweet notion
You two are oceans
From the start
The treasures deep inside you
Will be lost
And you will part
For water slips right through
Our fingers
When we try to
Hold on tight
Love is boundless
Always giving
Let it be
Forever bright
By their hinges
Place the gateway
Near the fringes
Portals pass
Through naked hearts
Thresholds bridge
The darkest parts
Forests wonder what
You’re knowing
Wind and thunder
Keep you going
The soul’s a spotless
River glowing
Drink from the cup
That’s overflowing
Dire straits
Who will have us
Peter waits...
Jesus waits
But is "forsaked"
For lovers love
And haters hate
The word is fire
It’s on display
To help us live
To make us play
A poet lost
A lover found
In the writing
She is bound
So many stories
So much to say
For us to live
And find the way
The Lost Boys
Always
Are earth dwellers
With heads up in the sky
They will long for
Merry mermaids
To sing them lullabies
For Mother Mary
Left a fairy
In their soft and broken
Hearts
The soul departed
Never guarded
As it should be
From the start
But fairies speak
The wildest wonders
And they shine
The whole night through
Lost boys and girls
Should listen
To the light
That’s ever true
Cuz there are mothers
There are fathers
There are mermaids
There are brothers
There are sisters
There are daughters
There are sons
That dwell inside
Nature is a doozy
For none but human-kind
But stories, they will show us
All we’ve left behind
You kind and mighty lamb
Go get lost out there
Only to be found again
I am Gretel to your Hansel
New cages lock you up in turn
Don’t ever fear my guidance
In my hands the witch will burn
The loving dove will always hover
Above your head
So just look up
While humble feet
Will keep you grounded
She will help you
Rise above
The clouds parted
And a little voice
From down below said,
"Keep going where you’re going,
Sweet one.
Keep walking what you’re talking,
Honey.
Follow that yellow brick road
After you fathom that
Rabbit hole.
The lion’s den was never meant for
Wild girls
With Angels’ pearls."
To laugh and cry
Share what makes you
Feel and come alive
Our senses are magic
Reflections of a landscape
Internal and external
That connect our worlds
When we share openly
Through the fear and fire
We have the capacity
To inspire
To help each other heal
And reach for something
Deeper
And in that singular moment
Shared
We are one
To break
A Spirit
Is to try to
Possess them
Let them be
Help them grow
Teach them
What you know
And then
Let them go
Willingly
12 feet deep
Below the sea
I closed my eyes
And looked inside
Right past all my
Foolish pride
Waves of stillness
Carried me
They stripped me clean
Of broken things
I thought I’d stay
A little while
No breath of air
A lonely mile
Time slows down
The shadows clear
I love the view
From way down here
Yes, my heart tells me so
So I sail and I fail
But I still can’t let go
We want freedom, sweet freedom
And we’ll get there somehow
The gain and the pain
Are the same to us now
We die while we live
And we’ll die when it’s time
If we give just to give
Then our love will suffice
For this life is for love
And this love is for us
And this "us" is much more
Than we care to discuss
For man is just man
And he dies just the same
But his love carries on
Not attached to his name
