Carolina A Love Song

My heart is sore for hills,
My eyes for the verdant green
My soul longs for the mountain’s height
My nose for its crisp, cold air

My arms wish for the broad expanse,
My legs aim to stretch out far
And my feet are aching to wade
In all your rippling streams.

I want to be home,
I want to be home
In the worst way

I need wide open spaces
The rich green expanse
Shadows dancing off mountains
Sloped calmly to my right,
Far as the eye can imagine.

Carolina,

I long for thee
When haste has come my way

Carolina,
You call to me

And tell me the time
To come back home.

Play in the Cold

Some times
Seems closer
Than others,

Some days
Nearer to me
Than not,

Some seconds
I still believe
In beauty

But you must
Also believe
In the possibility
There of

And what it
Dare might mean
To your perfect and
Pretty life.

What does beauty
Demand of you?

Miles and lives
And millions of sighs from now,
All that matters is this—
And what you made of it.

Love Me

Give me love
Give me bliss
Give me a smile
And yeah, maybe a kiss

I will give you my trust
My hope
And my faith

Hey, who knows —
It might just save the day

Just love me like I love you
Cherish me
And hold me close
Then, together
We will grow quite old.

(thanks, Coldplay)

Silent Revery

I was never able to express myself

Not in a genuine,

Soul-searched,

Wide-open way,

Not to you,

Anyhow,

The one person who mattered more to me

Than life itself,

One day that I remember clear…

And all this time later,

All these years hence and beyond and gone,

I still remember that day,

I still hold on to that day,

It still haunts and affects and moves me

Because I was never your boy,

Not that boy,

Not the one you wrote home about

Or cried about,

Or didn’t want to live without,

I was just someone else

Not really to be bothered about…

O God I remember it

How possibly could I have forgotten it?

I couldn’t

I can’t

It’s still here,

It’s me,

Hiding behind my computer screen.
