clouds
clay
Light
has always been there
never beyond reach
flickering
at times flaming wild
defined spaces
clear boundaries
but to have a heart
that has bled much
loved much
it is in darkness
that the human in me
comes to life.
suspended
aloft, on fluffed clouds
I breathe in freedom,
moments
drip pure light
feeding on music,
sipping poetry
no more longing
for drunkenness
that once
made me feel alive
infinite
I taste you
in breathing waters
hear you
in the laughing sky
flying
into the light
I take a dip
in eternity
each moment
pregnant with you
my feet
touch
only
to kiss
the holy ground
eyes
even the moon
s.i.g.h.s
at the sight
of your incandescent eyes
pregnant with light

sun kissed
cruising through cool breeze
a joy, a bubbling ecstasy
floats in the sky
pulling near
your soft, invisible ties
through gleaming beams of light
an ascension, a winged flight
with an essence dove-like
caught alive with every sunrise
timeless moments
lived in closed eyes
∘∾∘
ask from the dark clouds
or the flaming hearth
of endless nights spent
in waking eyes
that knew
neither rest
nor sleep
ask from the tears
that were too tired
to be wept
from the lips that bled
unutterable words
in sweet pain
of longing
all seeking
in unison
a window
a door
to reach you,
to enter
your perfumed garden
only to find
one full moon night
as if it were a dream
as if I needed to be pinched
in that fleeting moment
when I saw
you closing the window
me inside
with you
me inside
with the beauty unseen
with the timeless truth
giving me a dose
of intoxication
that will take
a few lifetimes to recover
that will take
more than
a few lifetimes
to recover
cape town
twilight chords
colourful emotions
tucked under
a blanket of clouds

wild child
amidst
acoustic breeze
and flying clouds
somewhere beside
this running brook
find me willfully lost
tuning a celestial verse
in blissful solitude
silver serendipity
the moon chases the clouds playing peek-a-boo
truth dissolves in pain
a new trail emerges from nowhere
