Her name...

Her name is that of a flower

much like the ones you find

in the middle of a beautiful field

just living life and being so beautiful

without much effort

just swaying in the wind

and kissing the morning sunshine

smiling at the ladybugs 

as they flit by

she is just like that flower

innocent

a part of nature and 

a glorious sight for sore eyes 

I long to pick her 

and put her in a vase

to capture her essence

but alas,  we all know what happens

when we take a flower from 

its natural home

and ask it to live to its fullest

while its roots are drowning in tap water.

What's life without that dream..

What's life without a dream

that gives you sleepless nights

that sets your heart on fire

a burning desire.

That makes you restless

until you meet with success

with finesse

nothing less.

That which makes you chase it 

that which doesn't let you quit 

your heart and soul, you submit

to live it

to be it.

Whats's life without that dream

what's life without that dream..

I have seen the magic..

I have seen the magic of tall mountains 

blood red sunsets sinking down on my life

walked oak wooded dales and leafy larch lanes.

But I really wish you were here.

Kicked up soft sand on a pink coral beach 

run barefoot through fields of barley and corn

felt fresh falling rain on my upturned face.

But I really wish you were here.

To share one moment of lavender scent 

laughter and light as you walk in the room

may I forfeit all the wonders I've seen 

for a touch, a mere whisper of you .

I scan velvet skies for your star each night

oh, I really wish you were here.

Love..

Love is love

even though 

her heart doesn't fit yours.

Love is love 

even though

her hands were holding

another universe.

Love is love

even though 

her lips never land on yours.

Love is love 

even though

her moon never shined back.

And love is still love 

even though

it was not meant for you.

I feel love..

I feel life

I feel love

Like I have never before

the sun on the mountain tops

melting through the ice 

I look into your eyes 

and see an ocean

of blue and green light

I never knew those smiles

could do so much

It's like a breath of fresh air

like a taste of freedom

that I've never had before

I gaze into the sky

the moon shining right back

the light from the stars

waiting for you and me

and I feel

Love .
