Soul Mirror

Don't turn your eyes away my dearest,
Even if you do my light will float in your vision in earnest,
Within your depths where you still see me,
Where lies truth split into rays a million to flee,
Touching the darkest legions of your mind,
An endless tunnel spiraling to an unseen sigh, light to find,
Don't turn your purpose from my life ever,
When you've run and you pant to pause don't say "never",
For there I will wait to put lucid dreams back into your hope,
My veins and nerves will I offer as you hold on like a rope,
And when it is time for the stars to come out,
Night skies will never be a reason to stop your journey, have no
doubt,
For I shall hold my soul mirror to reflect a brightness,
My faith that you shall reach the shore will end the darkness.

Pagan Dance

Lost in a haze neither purple nor grey,
As time marks itself recording life on her tresses each day,
She conjures love born out of joy and pain,
Breathing the thrill of petrichor quenching thirst in the first rain,

Oblivious to who watches her, for she doesn't really care,
Time nor age is of no consequence, life she will dare,
As all her songs echoing her poems will rise with the dawn,
Moist with exhilaration she dances, dew on a grassy lawn.

Thank You

Don't turn your eyes away my dearest,
Even if you do my light will float in your vision in earnest,
Where lies truth split into rays a million to flee,
Within your depths where you still see me,
Touching the darkest legions of your mind,
An endless tunnel spiraling to an unseen sigh, light to find,
For I shall hold my soul mirror to reflect a brightness,
My faith that you shall reach the shore will end the darkness.
