Melancholy

Today I am carrying

A color that glows inward

Transparent yet reflective as mirror

A few tears roll down my cheeks

Small release as tribute

To monumental experiences

Swollen Clouds

I know this landscape

Sacred Melancholy

An inward dance

Solitude

My old friend

Shifting

Realigning 

Processing

Yearning

Awareness of the enormity

Sitting with the infinitesimal

Humbled

Awakened

Awakener

I am an awakener.

I awaken desire.

I awaken your shadow self 

I reflect envy, jealousy and want

I awaken the Faery Folk

I awaken the waters

I awaken the in between 

I awaken the land

I awaken ghosts

I awaken spirits

I awaken the memories

That need to be remembered

I stand at the crossroads 

I awaken the Flame.

I am awakened.

Poem: To Himself

 

To Himself

 

I do so love

To nuzzle into the

Crook of a Man’s arm

To taste the salt

Of his skin

To smell his unique smell

He sleeps – spent

I lie awake

Savoring how he pushed

My arms over my head

Chewed on my neck

Made me whimper

And cry out

I lie here

Awakened…
