where smiles and frowns still hide
i yearn to know why i exist
and search there deep inside
a thought embraces and imbues
across my weary soul
where scars left from the deepest cut
reveal how i'm unwhole
how can i shine beyond the rain
where do i go from here
the clouds are pierced and won't let up
the thunder calls me near
perhaps i'm meant to grieve and grieve
and grieve forevermore
i guess it's why i still remain
where i'll not reach the shore
where i'll not reach the shore
i love that fire
which burns in accordance
to their own dreams
the passion they bestow
through depth and by
their chaos:
forever instilled
so beautifully.
through the pages and paintings
and chapters so long
as i embrace the
colors-
i am an unleashed moth
yearning for the next
moment they conjure another
perfect musing.
i am indeed in love
with poets.
i sense
tragedy
in my soul i know,
i know we were meant to be and yet
i'm so damn vacant and oblivious that
you would have never accepted it
(at least not for long)
time seems to drift away;
it's no longer of any concern,
why won't this leave me be...
leave
me
be
and
let me sit here,
so lonely and oh, so much further
from this world
than i have ever been before,
thinking only of you
you must have thought the worse
for my abandonment,
for my fallible nature and
for my ignorance;
i wonder if you can hear me
whisper
how so sorry i am
how could i have been so
uncaring in that last moment?
God, i'm stupid.
i'm stupid because
you were more of a gift to me
than i knew
and now i'm left wondering:
'do you echo my sentiments?'
as i think more, and more, and more;
deeper and deeper,
i wish so much
that i could utter to you,
through these tears,
how truly 'i still love you'
and how...
i will
till hell freezes over
and you're reawakened
'my eternal breath of heaven.'

a flight throughout a comely dream
with one who held me once before
deep in reformative serenity
and drenched in love forevermore
guided high above the clouds
there by her light and unconfined
i only want to know the embrace
which brings the stars to perfectly align
then dance that beauty into a life
that burns its depth and never dies
how could i not sense by the way
she looks at me and softly sighs
that only fate could conjure this
and so i breathe a perfect vow
and whisper it deep within her soul
we'll meet again one day somehow
goodbye, goodbye she whispers true
with tears i smile and never dare
to utter hopelessness to her
i now hold her within a prayer
i'll always think of what she meant
and how we didn't have the time
to be together more often than not
my belovéd for whom the angel' chime
what wonder oh, how dainty and how true
the depth and feeling of your little song
what vivid composition through that view
which bled your soul from where true skill belongs
i've traced throughout your genius, my friend
and read, and read again your every rhyme
and love how you can paint the thoughts that blend
to triumph through your muse's life in time
it feels as though you've writ forever, see
the way you can evoke exquisiteness
with that you shine your gift to such degree
that Euterpe must have blessed you with a kiss
thus when this praise aligns within your sight
i hope that you can see how you inspire
and in your thoughts i take more than delight
for how you hail as queen of poet's fire
this sonnet is but second-rate when weighed
in contrast to your faithful serenade
Author Notes: This piece was originally writ for poetess whom I met on another site. Her abilities in the sonnet form is remarkable and I feel so very fortunate to call her my friend. I believe the heroic sonnet is the perfect form to express how much I respect her as a fellow sonneteer and how her inspiring her work is. This one's for you Joyce.

a single breath
weaves a thousand lies
bore by the truth as all your dreams
still linger of his breath.
oh, i'm grazing...
grazing my heart with
hope to find you
interwoven in those lines
that you so seductively moan
in such a radiant beauty.
i'm mesmerized,
lost to the whole world but...
for you i am there in
that moment you've always felt
obligated to create.
the most delicate hint of me
slowly trickles.
i am
in love.

I'll validate my love to a degree
When with my pen I shed my constant aim
To live, to feel, to know what makes me free
Deep in the verses I let pour and bleed
Of beauty and with all I long to know
I'll keep you there for you are all I need
As you invoke in me the faintest glow
Please do not take exception to my heart
When all is known through every word I write
Nor yet deny my passion bares an art
That most may find too mazy to recite
Deliver me from all that haunts me still
Make known the love you swore you would fulfill
i'll hold you as my valentine
for you are so much more
than dreams that kindle deep and true
it's you whom i adore
i will take chance to utter hope
and never lie to you
to hold you as my valentine
through whispers more than true
and by this i can live again
and praise you with a song
if only by each day you'd see
how much we do belong
together everlastingly
like as we're meant to be
i'll hold you as my valentine
now that you're here with me
i love you from my weary heart
and i'll not dare deny
the words you thought to say to me
that taught me how to fly
which lead me to embrace a verse
i pour to touch your soul
then hold you as my valentine
for how you make me whole
oh, am i still who you'll think
of
when days remind you, dear;
when i am gone, gone far away
to have you wish me near?
as stars bequeath my memory
to you, and you alone,
will you think of when we danced
in fragile somber tones?
beneath the muted silver skies
while love turned to debris,
i swear i never thought you less
than what my dreams could be
but i must go, yes, go away
to save your precious heart,
from all darkness that i am
as my soul falls apart
when days remind you, dear;
when i am gone, gone far away
to have you wish me near?
as stars bequeath my memory
to you, and you alone,
will you think of when we danced
in fragile somber tones?
beneath the muted silver skies
while love turned to debris,
i swear i never thought you less
than what my dreams could be
but i must go, yes, go away
to save your precious heart,
from all darkness that i am
as my soul falls apart
i have
fallen
as a counterfeit hero
in my confusion
alone
alone
suddenly
deprived
while blue-gray thought
agitates
my soul
i wonder
what road mislead me
and how i wound up here
where beauty reforms
only as chaos
only as chaos
a flash... a sudden urge
to aspire
envisioned within my mind
cradled by the way
i was known
to be
she stands aroused
waiting for me
to die
I sense in you a tenderness
as we confess within the dark
and how to me your beating chest
is the sweetest sound to me, my heart
and I lie with you tonight, my love
while fate intrigues my very soul
and with you I can't get enough
and thus I will not let you go
how we have danced a life of yore
long before this day, my sweet
and oh, I say I do adore
you whom I will always keep
you brought me reason to exist
for you forevermore, my queen
it's why these tender thoughts persist
to breathe my life into your dreams
of blood and ink and of my truest thoughts
that once revived my heart to bear this whole
when love was love and lover's never sought
'twas Euterpe who would vouch for my poor soul
she sent to me when I was but a child
and came to me within a dream, you see
across the moor, across the murky wild
my other half who waited there for me
and how I have embraced that very cause
to satisfy the soul of one who dwells
within my heart to intrigue all the laws
of love and of sweet poetry to tell
I found my love, my love found me alone
eternally she's all I've ever known
