shadow
infinite mystery
you are here
yet you are nowhere
a feeling, a thought
between shadows and light
my wings and flight
you are a fathomless stirring
a beautiful confinement
in quiet murmuring
a tune that effortlessly sways
beyond an artist’s mood
or paradox of fate
you are the presence
that is aware
untamed in my tireless gaze
somewhere
healing light
the wind blows, sweeping with it memories,
stirring all thats been buried within
the thread slowly pulls loose
and the pile of dead leaves starts to break away
I give in, standing in silence
letting go of the fragile thoughts,
releasing the shadowed dreams
letting the feeling pass
there is yet another sky, another shore,
another reason to keep a beating heart
distant from warm comfort of tears,
away from the agony of an infatuated lover
sometimes we need to be protected from what we want
for a deeper need to be fulfilled
