Spaces in between the door & floor,
Wooden slats slid over symbols etching,
Evenings stretching, please,
When I have loved you from my knees
And when you're standing next to me.
There goes our #tangent to the planted seedling of our spring,
Should we ever bloom again
#vss365
Bats migrate across my window
To sturdy island and #vixen trees,
Constellation catching dreams
Vibrates in my periphery,
And as I try to stare at it
Join dots with marker on clean glass
I graced it with your name, at last,
Let it all slip from my grasp.

Toy box town settled beside pristine #mere, Lake Toya
Found a boy there, buried, metres deep snow
So soft had it fallen, like icing,
Sifted through fishnet on the banks
Where our lips met, forgiving
Our sleep debt, for
The journey so
Long &
Relentless

Let me show you
How to walk away.
If we do it slowly,
Allow our love to #hibernate...
It may survive the winter,
May thrive in splintered
Vines through concrete tiles
We can tread upon,
One day, again, as friends.

I feel the rising sun on my face
In a land I'm not familiar with,
Though I traced the grooves on globes once,
As an ambitious child.
The train, a wasp, weaves between #sloths of mountains
Stacked on each other with the certainty of centuries I toss coins to in exhibition.
#vss365
Watching the colour come back into the cheeks of the forest
With the sunrise,
Smoke like the shadows of dragons
Reflects on the snow.
The call and response of our fingers
Through a window,
Some remote town posed between antique mountains,
Where the #want lives.
#vss365#poetry
Tumbled off the edge of the continent to bathe
In the #dust of a new land,
I could find you, head in hands,
Stringing troubles on pink cherry blossom strands
Between stark tree branches, like bread crumbs,
I trace your steps from snow to sand.
#vss365#WritingCommunity#poetry
The emotional crescendo into the devastating ravine,
Wait for me, there, where our monologues can meet
And shake off their isolation of delicate soliloquy,
With all the knowledge that we've gained
We still remain so lost at sea.
#vss365#WritingCommunity#poetrycommunity
Rich sleep folded between sheets & evening, room enough
For metaphor to unfurl & righteous clouds gather
To battle ancient suns discarded from worship
& come morning, with weapons lain
We rise layered with memories
Subconscious playground reinforcement
I #durran
Again
#9linepoem
The space I occupied
Under stars galore, patterned haphazardly,
Once the trinkets have been swept into the grave
What cosmic string will fill the gap tomorrow?
#vss365#WritingCommunity#poetry
They danced with such abandon
Through the hallways of hotels,
Planned to meet in hell, they decided,
When all was said and done.
They tip toed in trepidation
Around the trappings of temptation
Last year had been an age, January
Would tell a different story
