Lets Talk

They Say Distances disintegrate
When people talk.
We tried did we not?
We made sounds like shrieks
And invoked storms and thunder
Within our widely spaced out lives
We talked... and disintegrated

Often, looking back I believe
We should have shared some more days
Of silences
And the storm would have ebbed
We would have been together again.

Desperate in our distances
Confined in our closeness
I wish we were like winds
One within the other

The trees would have done the talking.

Spiral

Come Let us slice into each other With fine surgical precision You slash me here I slash you there And then When the storm is done I will patch you up And you tuck me up You bring the bucket I the mop the blood And together we will cleanse Our ancient hurts Our guilts And our fears  Until we start again And over a cup of coffee You tell me  My dear Just how much you love me And I shall tell you Just how much I love you.

Our Kind of Music

Together We might never dissolve fully Into each other But we will flow my love Like rivulets through paths untrodden And we shall make music Like pebbles rolling And water flowing And birds calling There are all kinds of music And such shall be ours.

Long Winter Chill

If I could do a Neruda, You would have smelt of summer roses And Autumn pine. There would have been sheer love Of the kind that causes our hearts to ache And loneliness bordering the divine. You would have had so many secrets Welling up as in a girly giggle And so few friends who would hear them all. I am no Neruda I can't paint you a Summer breeze Amidst this long winter chill.
