A sudden rush of emotion
withheld, censored, eyes closed
immersed in the ocean
Clear blue skies, muddled intentions
breaking life open
skirting the law, another family tradition
The seams can’t be sewn together again
A rush of ambition, of love, of blood
“Quick before it all turns to dust”
A demigod among men, eternally lamenting
Vanity and insecurity tucked into their proper places,
Sunrise, sunset.
Friends and lovers past, a sea of half-remembered faces,
Sunrise, sunset.
Chances missed and paths leading to the roads less traveled by,
Sunrise, sunset.

Sunrise, sunset.
Enduring fears dissolving,
Relentlessly evolving,
Without change we are nothing.

Don’t cry my dear,
this is our sweet end.
sea meets mountains
birds swirl about for morning meals
the sky hangs sweet, mellow
and I am lying on a cliff
enveloped in your love
unravel
stark thoughts crashing into the shore in your mind
summer weather creeping its way into spring
kissing ether, ground firm in the dirt
love fills every corner of your heart
as light staves off the dawn of night
