Evening...

evening clouds passing

no one to share the golden glow

on the way back home

Gray

tears are not enough

blending with this autumn sky

gray solitude

soon raindrops become my friends

through soft misty thoughts of you

I didn't know you before...

I didn't know you before you came into my life 

Entering from a  broken, frozen  time 

When my heart was standing open to Love

An empty  cup waiting to be filled

You came like a sunset

Slowly burning  in the evening

My first star appeared that night 

On your sky

You are made of wood 

Of stone and soft snow

You are made of Agony, of Fear

You are made of Tears and Pain

You are made from the same mould like me

Cracked, yet precious 

You are a leaf falling slowly

Swirling in the breeze

You are the first day of my winter

And the first morning of my spring

I didn't know you before

But maybe I have met you

Somewhere inside a hidden dream

My eyes rest gently upon your wounded soul

My ears echoing your voice

My hands longing to touch you

Right there, where your scars still hurt the most

I do want to be your breath

I do want to be your shadow

I know you will not let me be your light

I am too small

But you could hide me inside your palm

One moon beam that went astray

And fell at your feet one night

When you were crying alone

Praying to God

Am I the answer to your prayers?

Am I the answer?

Am I?

I didn't know you before

But now my existence becomes so transparent inside you

All that you are is a love song 

Am I the last note that is missing? 

                                                                          
                                                                          Am I?

A leaf in the wind

A leaf in the wind

my existence, all

I am nothing more

a falling world in ruins

an old city looted 

tired, so tired...trapped

no more place to go

nobody to hold 

waiting for my sentence

to be executed 

I pretend I live

I pretend am whole

playing out my role

spending all my flame

waiting for the dice

I don't even care

for my foolish heart 

for my wretched soul 

even God will throw it

out of Paradise...

A vision (More than flesh and bones)

The rain falls all day today

Am laying naked on the couch

nested warm under the blanket

I long for your hand

Counting across the window 

Raindrops and our dreams that lost their way

Your fingers paint on the cold glass 

A heart and a secret sign

You kneel close and  kiss my hair

Your  warmth  like a desert wind over my skin

your touch a blessing

fireflies in my eyes

You smell like the rain outside

naked and true and wonderful

I lose my breath feeling you

I need your comfort as you need mine

God loves us both, you whisper

You join me, curling around my wounded soul with your pain

Like an ancient plant

You cover me with your longing

We are both outcasts

We are licking our wounds

Two lonely souls in this crazy cruel world

And thus we stay

Still

Loving each other quietly

Loving each other deeply

Minutes run to hours

The night covers us with shadows

You breathe on my shoulder

The rain always drips singing us to sleep

Profoundly mortal and free  in our nakedness we lay

You and me

And the falling rain 

Rain

Rain falls upon me

like music,

and drowns me

in a song with 

a bleeding melody,

so sad

so sad... 

broken faces

washed out colors 

i look yet I dont see

i listen yet I dont hear

i walk yet I dont move

all that mist

enters my heart

from this crack in my eyes

and this sea inside

drips 

like a persistant memory

a sigh a whisper a piece of you

i bite the green of the day

and the world around me 

loses its form

i drink the grey of the day

and my heart

becomes this rain

my heart

becomes this longing

to swallow

the pain

of this world.... 

Rest your heart

Rest your heart inside my heart

and your hand upon my thigh

Kiss away my every part

Make me yours with one sweet sigh

Feel my heart beat, feel my love

Echoing inside your chest

Take me to the sky above

find in me your soothing rest

Rise my clouds and drink my rain

Fill my craving mortal flesh

Plant in me your deepest pain

Ripe your joy, my happiness

Be my darkness, be my light

You're my true and only  bliss

I'm your rainbow of delight

Your first breath in my last kiss...

Somewhere

I know am in there somewhere

At the back of your smile
Somewhere warm
Like the soft place on your neck
I slip between your fingers
Like a prayer bead
I know am in there
Somewhere
Inside your mouth
Tasting your kiss
You know Me
You feel me
Under your flesh
Enwrapped in your verses
I know am in there
Somewhere
Between your words
Lingers like a gypsy
The taste of my kiss...

Be my moon

be my dreams

be my stars

lift the veil of my night

and kiss me...

String

I can wrap you around my little finger 

Just like  

A silk red ribbon 

To remind me

How you make my blood flow faster inside my veins

I can pull your strings

I can watch you, distant,

As you undress your soul in front of me

When we are one and i paint my dark desire on your face 

With whispers and kisses and my dangerous loving

When your manly armor cracks and falls at my feet

That moment you are mortal and vulnerable, 

And i see your face so bright 

And then i love you

Only because i know i do not love you

I ignite my night with your touch 

As your velvet eyes travel over my trembling flesh

You break me, you melt me, you swallow me

holding me, feeling my tide rising 

Yes,  I can pull your strings until you beg me  

To stop and start again

Ours is not a passion fit for hypocrits and cowards

We dare to dream the nightmares of the Heart

Risking our lives to the death

Beggars of Love

Jesters of the flesh

Eternally impenitent Sinners...

Jeune homme nu assis sur le bord de la mer ,  Jean-Hippolyte Flandrin (1809–1864)

He has a sea inside him

His heart is made of salt and dark indigo blue

Wave upon wave upon wave

No end and no beginning

This unknown sea 

Echoes deep inside my soul

Making me longing for this ocean

This man with a sea inside him…

Every night

Promises - paradise and distant shores

Every night

Suffering – hurricanes and tempests

Every night

a new shipwreck… 

Every night

a salvation …

Distance, by Laurence Neill

I threw a medium shadow
Last night
Outside your window
Under an Autumn streetlight.

Perhaps
As Winter deepens
My shadow will grow tall enough
to scale your wall.
And tremble,
tongue-tied
on your dreaming eyelids.

You are that far from me.

A shadow length away.

It may as well be a universe.
