don’t leave yet

for, you take my breath with you

just stay still so i may stare

the dappled sunlight has still caught

you in it’s arms

touch me now

and we shall burn

 

i want to watch this dream

with eyes wide open

run my hand through

to make sure you’re still there

 

what we’ve left outside

we don’t know

shadowy blue hides us for a while

and where we meet

we melt

a flame that fuses

you and i

 

and then we’re on fire

flushed reds

and hot pinks

dance across your cheek

and live at your lips

 

and your kiss is then scalding

leaving my lips burning

still wanting more.

poem: (by anon i think)

Do not stand at my grave and weep,

I am not here, I do not sleep,

I am the thousand winds that blow,

I am the diamond glints on snow,

I am the sun on ripened grain,

I am the gentle autumn rain,

I am the shining stars at night,

When you awake to the morning light,

I am the soft uplifting rush,

Of quiet birds in circled flight,

My time has come, I am at rest,

I am the sunset in the west,

I am the clouds that race above,

Where I watch over those I love,

Do not stand at my grave and cry,

I am not here, I do not die,

So hear the words that here I say,

I am the love that guides your way.
