Like A Fresh Summer Peach...

I have my letters to you; 
some written..
some still bouncing in my head..

simple notes; questions
and thoughts of my day...

where have you gone?
you should know,
that my heart aches.. 
for your touch... 
for your kiss... to see that smile again..
what makes us long?

I am forever unknowing
unless I am by your side
and those days 
are seconds that flow by 
like water in a river

I wonder where you are
and what life has given you

I know adventure fills your soul
like a cup to the brim
always almost running over
and that is good
do not ever change.
I dare not clip those wings
and never let anyone try to.

go 
to... 
and
see 
more...
and
feel 
more...

taste life at its sweetest
like a fresh summer peach; just picked
so juicy
and full 
that it runs out of the corners of your mouth
down your face and onto your chest

no worries though
because, I,
I will do the same 
because you taught me how to make life taste the sweetest..

Universe Calling...

the universe...
i hear her calling...
i hear everything inside.
i've had my mouth closed
my lungs full
my heart heavy
and she told me to rest.
so i'll unpack my thoughts
and count them one by one.
i left secrets up on that mountainside
over looking city lights..
felt uninspired
and so damn tired..
for all the things i've done
i've gotta blame someone. 
i hear the ocean by the mountain side
as i stare toward the sky
i'll lie awake
as i lie alive
while i try to remember all the things i didn't mean.
made the same mistake twice
hoping on second chances
because you and i both know
that if it weren't for second chances
we'd all be alone
a skip
a break
a lapse in time
woke up in the morning
life..passing me by
don't forget me
but please forgive me. 
The universe...
i hear her calling...
and i hear everything inside.
