Edge of Peripheral…

~

I can almost see you…

I know I don’t know you…

Simultaneously, I know everything about you…

~

You are in my dreams…

In my thoughts…

We meet there occasionally…

~

There is the known and unknown…

That magical seductive dance that ignites my imagination…

~

Recognition….

There you are…

Waiting for me…

On the edge of peripheral…

If you would like me to read this to you…

Waiting for the rain…

~

On the precipice of reality’s revelation….

Staring out at the majesty of the sea…

Thoughts wander aimlessly…

~

My life’s imprint…

Introspective…

On the cusp of inspiration…

Illusory images of illumination…

~

Enigmatic longing…

Destiny ever so slowly revealed…

I wish as the waves roll on oblivious of me…

~

I wish for epiphany…

Enlightenment…

Knowledge of Fate’s intent…

~

Contemplation of the ocean… timeless…mysterious…immortal…

Lost in the rhythm of its reaching to and fro…

Enchanted by its gifts which permeate all my senses…

Glimpses of future tempting me to push further…

~

I wait for any answer to my quest…

I wait for direction…

I wait for peace…

I wait for the rain to fall…

If you would like me to read this to you…

Undone…

~

Procession of emotions…

Steady succession of thoughts, so rapid they are unfathomable…

΅〜 ❀ 〜΅

My mind begs surrender to illusion of peace…

Longing for tranquility of thought creating serenity in my soul…

Momentary glimpses of how the scattered pieces will join together…

One by one a blurry picture of future is forged…

΅〜 ❀ 〜΅

The quest for answers takes me down the path of distraction…

Unexpected knowledge…

New pieces always adding to the potpourri of thought…

Mirage of the new world…

΅〜 ❀ 〜΅

Conflicted confusion invades serenity…

Discovered distraction surrounds me…where does it dwell?

More illusion or just a dream within a dream?

Did I unknowingly discover these new pieces?

Adding to the journey of solution…

΅〜 ❀ 〜΅

I close my eyes and ponder…

Trying to find answers…

They are not forthcoming…

Purposely hidden from me…

Faux reality…

΅〜 ❀ 〜΅

Surreal scenarios leave me aching for illumination…

Conflicted distraction my new companion…

The very lens through which I see myself…

    ΅〜 ೋღ ❀ ღೋ      〜΅ 

Tonight…

I am undone…

One Night…

΅〜 ೋღ ❁ ღೋ     〜΅

~

Lying under the blanket of night…
Stars sparkle their way through the black backdrop…
Creating illusions of images to please each soul…


Waiting for a star to fall…
Waiting to wish my secret wish…
I stare intently…hoping…
They are oblivious of me and my desirous intention…


Still I watch…
Still I wait…


Longing for that one fleeting moment…
They continue their twinkling show…


Still I wait…
Still I watch…


Night…
Your playground…
My wishing place…

If you would like me to read this to you… ~

Consume Me…

~

΅〜 ೋღ ❁ ღೋ     〜΅ 

It would be so easy to open myself to your love…

To fall fast and furious…

Fiercely intense chain reaction…

Combustion inside and out…

A mere thought of you the ignition…

My longing…my loneliness…my needs…the fuel for this fire…

This exigency flame enveloping us….

Your words caress from the inside out…

Ubiquitous desire…

Fulfilling yet….

Leave me aching….needing….wanting…

More…always more…

An addiction that is what you’ve become…

΅〜 ೋღ ❁ ღೋ     〜΅ 

Whether you will enhance me or destroy me remains unknown…

It would be so easy to discover which…

If only I could open the door to my soul and let you in…

Let you consume me….

΅〜 ೋღ ❁ ღೋ     〜΅

If you would like me to read this to you…

Epiphany…

 

 

I see how different words are bestowed with a sublime radiance of varying hues of color…
Emotional gradation…

΅〜 ❁ 〜΅

I observe my palette of words very carefully…
One mustn’t rush…

΅〜 ❁ 〜΅

Slowly I begin to paint…first one then another…
I step back and look at the revealing of this new painting…
This creation of words blending into something wondrous…
Something hitherto unknown…

~
Time passes…

΅〜 ❁ 〜΅

I look again…
I close my eyes…

΅〜 ❁ 〜΅

I feel the tumultuous gathering…
The machinations of my senses coalescing into words…

΅〜 ❁ 〜΅

Their birth a beautiful rendition of everything combining at once…
As if time has no meaning here…
Past, present, future collide into my Phantasmagoric Dreamscape…
Joining…rejoining…connecting…
Locking together as though they already know how they are to combine…
As if they each have their own purpose, thought, desire…
To be seen, read, understood…

΅〜 ೋღ ❁ ღೋ 〜΅

Epiphany…
Am I their painter…
Or are they mine?
