float away from seeing
when i cannot
put a word
to it…
when i know it is
creeping
along inside its own
skin
when you have no idea
and float away from seeing
its polar opposite
in you
for me

as crazy as you
imagine me
as crazy as you
in your forest
that smiles with your sound
i see you
don’t go
touch me again
in only a second
…i knew you

the mountain
every step i take
i’m closer to you
the way i feel you
see me
as if looking through
piercing…
did you know
you are the mountain
i intend to climb
and reach?
…after all
you are the one who
taught me
how to whisper

my bench
my bench
a sole moment
watching the breeze
inhaling the colors
painted in my mind
of you
as you sit with me
in another time
watching each wave
which builds
our destiny
that only you
and me
can feel

to say to you
it will all be ok…
your heart
exposed to the perilous space
which took your breath
led by that which
lures you into the current
you need
love directs your course
you know..
and it is no mistake
that you felt him looking at you
as if looking through
knowing all in an instant
that day
more than once
as if to say to you silently
yet directly
some day you will be mine
