Redemption of Grace

By Anonymous
this elation is a beautiful high. I do not want it to go away
it is a rare gem to find
this laughter within longs to bubble out into the world
and rain on everyone

The tiny smile in front of me gives me this simple joy
her laughter touches the darkness in my soul and takes it away
her innocence is my second chance
and her eyes melt my every worry

tears well up in my eyes and I cannot hold them back
I take her and hold her close to me and she holds my cheeks with both hands
I look at her and wonder if she understands
she touches her forehead with mine and smiles

another bout of beautiful joy bursts from within me and I start to laugh
she looks bewildered for a moment then starts to laugh too
a beautiful tiny laugh that grows louder as I spin, holding her up high
and in that moment, nothing else matters, she is my second chance
........ my saving grace

Must I Choose?

By
I am torn, conflicted between one who is beside me and one that should be, I cannot decide. She is my anchor, speaks the words that comfort my heart. The other teases me, a fun loving heart they both make a perfect woman. But I must decide. Must I choose? She bats her eyes and I die, the other winks and my knees give way. Must I choose? She makes my heart faint with longing, The other cherishes me beyond what I can imagine, they both fill my heart with joy. If I part with her, I will die. If the other leaves me, my soul will be robbed of light. Must I decide? They both are the perfect woman. ~ Pandit. And so continues the emotional binge. Image: Diver From Beneath by Petr Kratochvil

By Words and Thought

By
day's end brings with it a silence that most nights remains broken only by words much like poetry and thought. into that lull I draw forth tableaux of times perhaps best left adrift on the troubled waters of auld lang syne. how viciously wounding though, the refusal of recollection, for at least in memory I can cherish you as once I did. and the inquietude of vast longing, frustration at time's lethargic pace, knows the kindest, though briefest, of stays.
