As softness sparkle

June 9, 1994 — Filed under: mypoems

As softness sparkle Seeping rose to trickle Fears frustrations, confusion Questions Too many fore answers Future is uncertain tidal Emotions rushing in Rushing out Through the sea to far shores Anguish, torment ‑ for love Love for one Curing each other Being truthful with hearing Listening, complaining, comparing Least of all resolving Tears flutter birds of prey Wanting answers Birds of paradise Seeking original ferry tails Words try to express Words only try Attempting visions, reality Pictures do no better All just a slice Memories, feelings Moments in past left still Frozen perfection Lost soles searching themselves Searching each other Tempting loss Who self wants to be Revelations unwilling Letting go with both hands
