sherbet skies
against city lights
swimming in oceans of purple clouds
...
Though it's taken some time
I am now letting go
because goodbye is just a window
to another hello
...
White doves and black sparrows
sing the melodies they hold
with unspoken words
that speak to my soul
...
Be my ship
Be my shore
The lock and key to my cellar door
Please...keep me from fading
...
Artistically scarred
Beautifully broken
Each shattered piece
A most precious token
...
Slipping away
like water through my fingers
funny how sweet memories bring
pain that tends to linger
...
If words were not so fragile
and loyalty not so rare
would literature hold a right to compare?
...
So fleeting a flutter
an unconscious glimpse
of visions that utter
lost rememberence
...
Sherbet Skies
sherbet skies
against city lights
swimming in oceans of purple clouds
fields of daisies
dance around me
memories of the past surround me
lingering as long as time allows
the snapshot fades
to dull shades of grey
as the heavens become a black, starry hole
sherbet skies
speak the truth within lies
and the beauty has been burned in my soul
