Where Souls Meet

The winter wind blows
Cold, chilling bones and clattering teeth
Lips dry
Licking them
Freezing them and burning
Fingertips cold
And toes aching
Where is the hearth
Where is the hot Apple Cider
To warm my heart?
Hot fire and cold floor
Warm hands facing the fire
Smoke rising outside
Happy smiles inside
Rose red cheeks burning
Hot breath and cold teeth
Eyes touching,
This is where souls meet.


Sometimes I feel soooooo alone
In a room full of people
Knowing them...they are strangers to me
I turn off, so I do not feel.
I turn off so I remain unattached
I keep my inside quiet and still
I don't want to burden anyone
With an unwanted friendship
I don't know how to be part of anyone else
All I have ever wanted is to be loved
The way I love
And in this,
I am afraid.
I am afraid of being let down, again
I count on myself, always
Only MYSELF
People come in to play a role
For a moment
And the moment is surreal
I cherish the moment
Holding tight to my soul
Lest I forget when the role ends
I feel weary
I feel wary

I loved a man once
Who was an illusion of what I want
His greatest illusion in life
The facade of GREAT LOVE
He took the illusion and shattered me
Shattered my soul
The pieces are slowly coming together
I see great love in the fractured parts
Shattered parts forming a picture
I am empty, So empty
I don't want to be empty anymore
I am to be filled
I want to be full

The October full moon reminded me of this aloneness I created in my life. I spoke my words out to the bright moon and released the emotion... I released the hearts I broke due to my "love" fear...
We poured wine into a chalice and raised the cup to the moon and the moon shined down upon the cup. My lovers and I gave each other a drink and we embraced to the freedom to give and receive love...
