Higher

The artist in me,
Feels like it needs to escape.
Where is this feeling coming from?
I want to be able to unravel,
And slowly float,
Like the wind that calls to me.

Where would I go?
What would I hold on to?
I want to fly,
But I refuse to let my feet lift off the ground.

So I run.
I race the earth
And feel free..
Closer to you,
Closer to truth.

Just a few more steps,
And I’m with you.
A place I never knew,
A place I always overlooked.

But I wake up before I make it,
I don’t know if I was there,
I wonder if I ever will be,
All I’m left with is questions, unanswered.

So I play my music,
And wait,
Until this feeling is strong enough,
To lift me up,
And keep me off the ground
Long enough so that place is found.

*This was an improvised poem, so it may sound a little different that the last few that I posted, it was written as an attempt to describe a feeling that was going on inside me. With a little imagination, I put the feeling into words.

Different, but worth posting, because of its authenticity…

Rendez-vous

Kiss my lips,
touch my shoulder,
get lost with me,
as time grows older.

Time feels slow,
and yet delectable,
making everything about you,
look impeccable.

Stars burn above us,
in the night sky,
and warmth blossoms,
between you and I.

I look into your eyes,
and am surprised to find,
that you haven’t stopped
looking at mine…

So the time has come,
where we both realize,
that something new,
has just begun.

My heart skips,
like a melody,
that with each kiss,
I pull you closer to me.

I bat my eyes,
you smile back.
You’ve just made up,
for what this day lacked.

“To one more drink,
that’s shared tonight!”
May it be worthy
of our delight.

The hours lead us,
to our "goodbye",
we've reached it's end,
at the "blink of an eye".

I hug you tightly,
you will be missed,
and seal our evening
with one last kiss.

*Here’s to romance, and the magic that is created between two souls embracing the enchantment offered by a summer’s night.
