The Night When Nothing Happened

Cast on your bedshore, at night,
When lights were dim and souls light,
I felt the sea at play in us
For hours that struggled to pass.

My frantic heart was fiercely racing
On a rhythm not unlike dancing.
There was I, a lucid wreck
Calling the Captain on the deck.

Yet no one came, nothing at all
Disturbed the peace of our troll,
Except of course, when time was due,
Morning arrived to pull me through...

Burning Bush Visions

I wish I had a heart to spare,
For every longing soul - a word;
Yet my own longing is unfair
I want a touch from the Unheard.

Out there, witness to my nonsense,
Wearing a hot, devilish smile
Stands out, amid a cloud of incense,
My burning love, my fiery trial.

Should I resist you? Should I dare?
'cause you're inhabiting my dreams
In ways that only make me care
To not awake from your heart's beams...
