Renewed...

Like flowers filled with morning dew
my heart, with time, is refined
re-built, reshaped and renewed

Ignited with strength and life,
ready to experience love anew

Reluctantly riding on the
wings of patience, I am
encompassed by his essence
intrigued by his love’s ambiance

Eager to experience conversations in earnest
about my love… real love, unselfish love,
unadulterated, pure complex yet simple love;

residing within the walls of my existence

poised to distill its untold richness

in the midst of his gifted presence

Dreams, Hopes, Aspirations...

Dreams, hopes, aspirations
desired manifestations

of promised situations

so near, yet far away

Frustration resides

for time seems to slips away

one tick, one tock, on day a time

But a whispered prayer

of hope and faith, anchored in believe

propels the uproar of renewed visions,

dreams and decisions, making way and room

for the reality and manifestation

of impossible situations

Dreams, hopes, aspirations
desired manifestations of promised situations
so near, yet seemingly far away,

but soon to be a tangible reality

I Miss...

Staring into the far, yet near distance

I envision situations not yet experienced

My senses are alive with thoughts of you;

who you are, where you are, if you are near or far

My senses are alight with the knowledge that

somewhere, you are very much in existence

I miss being a two, for its lonely being a single one

Where are you, my appointed someone?

I miss his daring, yet knowing stare

you know, the one that pierces through the soul

holding my heart spell bound within its hold

I miss being him and he being me

Like I miss being a trinity;

Him, me and the holy spirit right there in between

I miss being his silent strength

when all he has is gone and spent

I miss the essence of his kiss

that transforms everything around me

into a welcomed faded bliss

Being one, can be lonely and sometimes not much fun

So, daily in anticipation I look forward to the day

he comes into view, to the day I meet my very own someone
