SOULSPEAK
Meet me beyond thoughts that dart
like fishes frantic to be everywhere
Beyond conversations
knocking into the edges of nowhere
Meet me there, where a shaft of dawn
is not broken by what should
or should not be done
There, where clouds do not claim
mouthfuls of every horizon
Come, let us hold hands
not as love's convoluted threads
but like waves adrift
bound by an ocean's depths
And when it is time to step back into shadows
waiting to draw you into their designs
we shall let the dark filigree drape your curves
for ablaze within you would be
the intent of a million suns
contoured by all the grey that we freed
