And The Moon Melted The moon rose high up in the sky Without a single sound The wind like silk, embraced our shadows Lying on the ground. Your lips, wine stained, delicious Devoured mine hungrily And your dark eyes of paradise Made my eyes, Eden, see. The soft waves, ebbing slowly As the sea, it's symphony, played A dark background with silver gleaming While my heart, at your feet, laid. Your questioning eyes, my questioning sighs Asked questions without words And our hearts, in answer, in rhythm, shouted What only two hearts had heard. Your hand, upon my chin, to raise My face up to your glance You kissed me softly like a whisper And our feet began to dance. For music then sprang from everything With no musician hidden there And the night clouds parted, silently fleeing To reveal the bright moon there. The love that shone as night moved on All of our sadness, shattered And we forgot our pasts and forgot our pain Knowing now was all that mattered. And the moon, knowing much about love herself, smiled As you melted yourself into me And the moon, who loved those dark silvery waters Melted herself into the sea.
This song is a magic song. If you listen at least three times it becomes part of you and you're addicted to it. sounds incredible with headphones.
Running With TheWolves
Running with the wolves In forests dark as night We wait to play and sleep all day Keeping out of sight. But when the wolf moon peeks it's head Out behind the cloud We run so fast and howl for joy And we sing our songs loud. The other humans run away They do not understand How wolf and woman can become friends (But they're only mortal man.) They do not know the way we feel When the wildness in our blood Begins to blaze up like a fire A fire that feels so good. We have to run, we have to howl We have to set it free My brother wolves, my sister wolves (And none as wild as me.) A wolf inside when I was a child Not knowing what I was Wanting so to just let go And scream out just because. But I kept my secrets locked inside And did it well, it's true Not knowing another with his wildness hidden Was there till I met you. ❤
And it is raining Again The night is quiet, The streets are quiet Except for The dew of Heaven Except for the beating Of my heart And the sounds of my breathing. I have been dreaming of you Again Dreaming the forbidden The passion and desire That lives only in my dreams Now. I still feel your lips upon mine, The sweetness I crave, The mouth that claims me As it's own The mouth I give myself To. I lick the taste of you Off my fingers Like chocolate And honey And my taste buds Cry out in ecstasy. But you're not really here Are you? You are in the realm of sleep Where you await in lucid dreams And fantasy. So why do I Hear you in the raindrops? Feel you in the wind's caress? Touch you in the flesh When I close my eyes? You are here Aren't you? I just can't see you With my eyes open, Only closed, only closed. It's then I can love you As you love me Kiss you As you kiss me Touch you As you touch me. I need you Like a garden Needs rain Like a desert Needs a flood. I am parched for you My monsoon I am hungry for you My banquet Thirsty for you My hurricane. Let me feel Your waterfall Drench me In this midnight Let me feel you Fall into me With every drop of rain. For the rain is you And the rain is me Falling into one another Like silver Like gold Like love. Listen! Do you hear that? It is our hearts Communing Calling out to one another In the night.......... Beseeching and taunting And teasing with promises. Our hearts call Unbidden by our minds For our minds are afraid And shy and inhibited By our schooling. But our hearts know No boundaries, no laws, No teaching..... Other than what they teach us Themselves. Our hearts Cannot be tamed Or imprisoned Or contained in any way Because they are wild And free. And only they....... Know how to access the realm Where you and I meet Know where the doors are........ The locks.....where the keys are hidden And know how to turn them. This is the secret That very few know But we know Don't we? And when it rains, We run there happily Like children who are innocent, Yet wise And we play in the rain And we love with abandon And joy. And tonight, my love We have met once again We have revelled in desire And bathed in bliss Given ourselves to passion And taken only What we could carry in our hands. For though we are selfish And we need more and more, We know that longing for something Only makes it sweeter, Only makes it more cherished. And having said that, My heart is still hungry, My mouth is still thirsty, My arms empty and reaching My body cries out for another hurricane And still it rains.
Strangely Vulnerable Always been a steel butterfly A stem that bends, not breaks I had to be a woman early For all my siblings' sakes. I sacrificed my childhood Though it was truly not my choice I had to grieve in silence And pretend I had no voice. While deep inside, I yearned for A life to call my own Someone to make me feel loved Someone to feel like home. And years went by in sadness And no love showed it's face I looked to find that treasure And made for it a place. The sadness made me stronger The pain gave me resolve An enigma and a puzzle That no one dared to solve. I stood alone, I lived alone A warrior in the fight No armor bearer, no sweet companion To help me bear the night. And then you came into my life With love there in your eyes So much like I, it made me cry And feel I'd won a prize. And all my soul I gave to you And all my love and heart Feeling you fit into me Like we'd never been apart. But to my surprise, I found that I In surrendering all of me Became a little girl again That only you could see. That strong oak tree that I'd become Became a willow, swaying And the warrior woman so tough outside Became a schoolgirl, playing. That love would make me vulnerable Was not part of my plan I only meant to show my strength Like I'd always shown a man. But not with you could I do that However right or wrong I found myself surrendering And not wanting to be strong. For in your arms I felt at last The woman and the girl I'd always been but was afraid to be Alone there in the world. But you have the power to crush me And your words can bite and sting Just as you have the power to endow And the gift to make me sing. So strangely, strangely vulnerable I've become and yet I find It's comforting to be a part of you, Your body and your mind. What heals can hurt, what hurts can heal It's odd how love can be The humbling vulnerabilities In turn, can set you free. You'll hurt me though you don't mean to And heal me if you can Through it all, you'll see, the woman- child in me Will make you a stronger man. For fear of love doesn't make you strong But weaker every day For your heart slows down and eventually stops Every time you push love away. These are the lessons that I've learned In the life wars that I've fought And that love is the most highly prized of all things But it's something that cannot be bought. So I willingly give myself to you For my heart, though battle-worn Is soft and pliable in your hands Like a heart, just newly born.
