Poetry

Who’s Truth?

Seeing is believing
at my own expense.
I’m a little misguided.
Nay, I am dense.
Perception is reality.
Reality, intense.
Nay, I’ll stay silent.
The truth gives offense.
Tell me your truth,
Nay, I’ll relent.
Told my own truth.
Today, I’ll repent.

Beyond the Plain

Walk with me
in the park
we’ll hold hands
because it’s dark
in our world
we’re only two
there is me
and no one but you
the sky is glass
so we’ll break through
and then we’ll pass
beyond the blue…
Into twilight
where we will talk
amongst the stars
where we will walk.
Nothing will matter
but you and me
and we’ll skip stars
over the sea
and build a tree house
on the moon
and shower ourselves
in the monsoon
and then we’ll play
out in the rain
and roll down hills
beyond the plains.
We’ll never say we love each other
let our actions speak louder
than rolling thunder
And then we’ll bask
in the brooding light
and in the eve
we’ll close our eyes
and I will die
come sun rise.
And I will bristle
at the rest
and I will nestle
into your chest
and you will hide
close to my breast.
Come run with me
out in the rain
over the hill
beyond the plain.
