If you are lost, can’t find a way
Like a search light I shall find you
Pluck you from the stormy seas
And turn the tides to shore
If you get scared when their monsters’ play
Like a blanket I shall cover you
And tuck you close, be your shield
It’s all just smoke and mirrors
So hush sweet angel
No more tears
I’ll stay right here, beside you
Through the brutal and the beautiful
I’ll love you for all time
~ storm lullabye
Unwrap your heart
marvel that it still beats strong
Begin again
Let the rest fall as it will
I wear you like a favourite sweater
Zipped over my heart
Cool beneath your warmth
You have winter in your soul
I watch you.
Your story, silenced
By monsters
That prey in the lightI know you.
Forged by Love and Loss
A rebel soul
Cut downI feel you.
Your scotch taped heart
Pressed against my chest
Drums a warrior’s cryI love you.
Believe in heroes
Hold my hand
Together, we’ll charm their darkSpring is just round the corner
~ enchanted
The sky was clear and the moon full.
He whispered, “Love is a powerful drug.”
Artemis blushed.
“Show me an ocean,” she murmured, “ I’ll summon a tide to save your stranded soul.”
His eyes narrowed.
“Show me the moon,” she said.
I’ll pick a star to light your path.”
In that moment he understood how it felt: addicted.
~ Artemis and Sailor
Charm me, darling
Perchance I forget
“Behind every song is an untold story,” he said.
With a gentle nudge
He whispered, “Come dance.”
The notes began from silence
And in the still, I fell
Drunk on him
Time signatures filled the room
Apollo cradled Calliope
As the music played on
Lyrics overtook me
Words slipped like honey from my tongue
I spoke
Of never-ending summers
Starry nights, we chased till dawn
Of sea shells and ocean waves
A siren’s lilting song
Candle lit moments
Before time left me wondering,
Is there any poetry left?
He pulled me closer
As the music played on
Music painted on silence
Gave wings to my soul
Strong magic
Lifted me from the ashes
He kissed my broken
Poured the poetry back in
As the music played on
~ Apollo and Calliope
Memories
Of a time
Little Golden Book moments
Tossed high
Into the branches of a backyard cherry tree
If only to imagine pink snow in April
~ Snow was pink, where we once lived.
Grace’s Cherry Tree
Forget gold.
Give her love
Fleet and fierce
Defend her heart
Pull the daggers from her back
Be a Storm Watcher
Give her shelter
Brush the snowflakes from her tangled hair
Speak words that matter
Honest and true
Have a heartbeat that quickens
at a fingertip’s touch
Give her love
She is worth your time.
~ Lyrics and Leather
~ a quiet space I’ll share a secret
There is magic in fairy tales
Cinderella, Merida, Belle and their sisters were not perfect in the beginning
They had to wander dark forests
Perfection does not make a story
It’s only a happy ending when you turn the last page.
~ Once Upon A Time
