Azul Noir Poems

I wake from a dream
I fall back in
So vivid but unclear
Fading out, falling in
...

I'm sick of needing nothing more to smile
I'm sick of friends who just won't let me fall
I'm sick of sunshine without clouds
And rainbows ten times in every mile
...

Given like glass whole and clear
trust is broken by your fear
broken trust lies in pieces
dropped as my heart freezes
...

I am hesitant to go too far too fast
To repeat not only the good, but the failures of the past
I struggle to find words to describe, not only the love I have,
but also the surreptitious fear that I hide
...

Here we go again
Testing lessons learned
Falling over my own fear
Saved by a stranger
...

A small seed springs to life.
Happy. Carefree. In Control.
Firmly planted in its place.
Growing. Learning. Sure.
...

A chair creaks, a clock ticks - and silence
The air hums, a door thuds - more silence
My need for you is quietly constant
We wait, my need and I, in silence
...

I stepped out into the open
I was much too damned outspoken
I said more than I should have said
It's real now. It exists separately to my own thoughts.
...

In my everyday I feel you
In my thoughts your thoughts are mine

In a moment's wondering
...

A chance encounter thrills us
A first date, first kiss, first fight follows
I change, you change and we grow
With change the widening gap starts to show
...
