Finally Here

Ah, it is finally here
the light peeking
in through my windows,
but I'm standing outside
with the cool air
breathing on my skin
with a touch
of wind in my hair, 
in the night
I stand
under the bright moon.

Start Over

Did it just
start over
the same night
over and over
with the same dreams
the same bed
the same blanket.
I cling to it now
sitting in bed
waiting for the dawn
for I can't have
the same night again.

Patiently Waiting

I have patiently
waited for the moon
to again rise
peeking into my windows
in the night
as I dream.
I can feel
the days getting shorter
watching the moon
transform each night
into different shapes
feeling it's power
getting stronger
calling me
in the cool night
to stand in the moonlight
as it rises full again.

Feeling the Rain

The rain 
falls
steady, 
slow,
dripping down
my brow
as I stand 
in the middle
palms out
catching puddles
to take in
every drip,
smiling to
every little splash
on my lips
with head held up
I feel the rain.

I Await the Rain

I see the
rising sun peeking
over the horizon
bathing me as I stare
into the light blinking
feeling its warmth,
while holding the light
I await the rain.
I see behind th sun
the dark clouds rolling
waiting for the storm
to finally come,
to bathe me
cleansing the dirt
until my sight
has become blurred,
I await the rain.

Bump, Bump, Bump

Bump...bump....bump
comes the distant sound
against the corners
of my skull,
which I ignore
until it rings
deep into my core
breaking me
waking me
until I can't take
anymore,
it rings
again and again
bump...bump...bump
with time in sand
bump...bump...bump
so far away
but ringing so loud
bump...bump...bump
into worlds apart
I still know it's
your heart.

Weep Not

The body
is laid
down to sleep
in the dirt
where it has decayed,
weep not
for the life no more
weep not
for the hole
it has tore,
for this body
has went to sleep
dying from this world
to rise, to reap
into a new life
that it has bore.
