Burning Both Ends
Creating Balance
Ceding to the traversing dance of life
and take my hand as my favorite weakness
Dipping in shadows, consuming the light
sheltered from the storm, until it passes
**
Show me my reflection, pooled in your eyes
dripping love for me, creating ripples
Drench me in your mist, like rain from the sky
until the difficult becomes simple
***
Engaging borrowed imaginations
riding the thunder, rolling in the grave
Flexing light and dark hallucinations
walking through hell, until we are both saved
****
Completely ravaged by the flames of love
that's the kind of fire we've been dreaming of

A Rose By Any Name
Just for you, my sweet, A red rose to start your week, To show that I care. [Author's note: This rose bloomed overnight. It weas so perfect in form , I had to send it to someone to remind them I was thinking about them. Out of that came this vey impromptu Haiku.]
