Love and such...

[wistfuldragon]

Kneeling in crystallized green grass
oblivious to the chilled night
awareness centered on the deep ache...

Tears glisten in mooted light
as they roll over lips moving in prayer
before dropping onto hands clasped tight...

She asks for an angel
willing to grant her boon
a message of hope...of love...

"The One is...real...touchable..."

Wings tucked in graceful folds
he hears the silent prayer
knowing what his part in their story will be...

Invisible to the naked eye
the angel stands rightly secure
in a world within a world...

Watching his charge ever closer
the stars enhance the dark lure
in those eyes of obsidian gems...

"The One should be...needed...wanted..."

She startles to see him
an answer given by sight
faith restored as love graces heart...

[wistfuldragon]

The hush of desire...
waiting for the wanting to crawl through the body...
stirring your senses into passion...
a kiss gently placed upon eager lips...
the touch that feeds the hungry skin...........
************************************************************

It feels familiar
this recollection of the shattered soul...pieces in the here...the now...the there...the then...once upon a dream...floating on a whisper...dancing with shadows...desperate hands reaching...grasping...empty...it feels so familiar...

You are there...in my thoughts...dreams...fantasies...you...me...playing in the warm rain...touching passion in the glowing morning magic...through my eyes...my hands caressing your beautiful face...watching you smile...sensations...my voice...repeating your name...sounds of joy...the bodies know the truth of us...beyond thought...gentle kiss...caution in the touch...tender moments shared...

I have lost control...lost myself...known the pain of untrue love...learned hate will hold me...I can not...will not...beg...no...beg someone to stay...I think not...true love would have no need...to see me on my knees...pleading...heart bleeding...begging...LOVE ME!...true love would not ask such things of me...as there would be no need to fight to make a wrong...right...I then would not bruise...tear my skin beating my fists against the stone heart...I would be...loved...

Forever waits...wants...me to believe...holds arms outstretched for the time I willing fall into them...Forever knows the fear that kills me slowly...it knows the cure for my broken beaten hope...swears a soft kiss will change my coldness into warmth...my hate into love...my anger into passion...it swears this...Forever understands the reasons for the walls...stands ready for the deluge of restrained emotion that will flood when freed...Forever speaks to a heart unwilling to listen...knowing the words will remove brick after brick...destroying the walls...making room from for the belief in Forever...the belief in love lasting...

[wistfuldragon]

Tis no love
that holds a
greater power
than this love
of yours...
For the light
in those eyes
to shine upon
me I would sail
any water...cross
all boundries...
fight whatever foe
finds need to be
such...
I love you...
my lost beautiful soul...

[wistfuldragon]

I am the leaf floating on your breeze...
lofting high on the emotions of us...waking dreams
love save me...help me...tell me I shall not be blind to you

[wistfuldragon]

She was standing near the window
Looking out into the world around
Feeling lost..alone
Questioning her next move
She saw the clouds taken form
Felt in her heart a breaking of sorts
When the rain came
She was worried
Thinking she might have to hide inside
She could be washed away
Then I rain drop fell against the window
Blown there by the wind
Seeing how it slowly rolled down the glass
She started wanting the rain to touch her
Body tense from fear
She walked to the door
The walk through
She stood in the open
Feeling the rain fall upon her
That's when the fear left
As the slight chill of the rain
Soaked through her clothes
She knew her fear was unfounded
Something she had held unto
Just to have something of her own
A lightness of soul began inside her
So she danced in the rain to her own music
Soft, glistening sounds
Guiding her movements
Time was of no importance
As she danced
When the rain came

[wistfuldragon]

She danced
Lost in the moment
Long wet hair falling down her back
Rain mimicking tear drops gracing her cheeks
In circles she spun
Fast and faster yet
Dizzy acting silly
No care did she have
Down she went
No worry still
Felt only the joy
Washing over her
Soon came the splashing
Hands slapping the ground
Water flying in the air
Laughing
Free at last
No one else in her world now
Just the music
The moves
Splashing
Laughing
Silly
It was in that position
He found her
Young he thought she was
Then at closer look did he see
She was like he
Lost for a time in misery
Now here she sat
Playing the child
Freed of all concerns
Learning once more
How life can be













*He may or may not sit and play*

[wistfuldragon]

When the rain came
it took me unaware
Lost in selfish thought
until the first drop was felt
I felt alone
I was wrong
Unseen to me
he was there
As the rain feel
he began taking shape
Invisible to me under a cloudless sky
now each drop revealed that much more of him
In full view he stood
wet...bare chested
Looking very amused
The smile telling me I should have known
he had been here all along

[wistfuldragon]

The sights mixed with smells
Fill her senses with questions
Should she explore further
Include taste, touch into the mix
Take a chance
Make something of nothing
When the rain comes

[wistfuldragon]

When the rain came
You took my hand
lead me into the open field
under the full moon
Guided my body with yours
as danced for all to see
in the rain
under a full moon
What care did we feel
None
From the moment your hand found mine
I never looked back
It was enough
just to feel you next to me
as the rain fell upon us


When the rain came
She was in a new place
In a world all her own
She'd never had that before
Feeling tense
A little fearful
A whole lot excited
Wondering if she could hold unto it
She began unpacking the years
Tossing around memories
Putting them away in new ways
She waited so long for this
A chance to find who she was
When there was no one else to tell her
Waking for the first time
In her new world
She knew there was still much work to do
"Bring it!"
She can do it
Her world, her life



When the rain came the pain followed
Kneeling in the sand sticking to her bare skin
Pounding fists
Tears mixed with rain drops
Screams barely heard of thunder
"Why do you go?"
Arms held above her head
"Didn't want to hear about my demons!"
"Didn't want to become one!"
Lighting striking sand turning it into glass
Knowing he could never understand her past
Knowing he had no desire to
So why did she care
Why sit here in the rain beating her hands till they bled
She found in her the night before he left
The true meaning of her love for him
She tried to tell him
It was to late
So here she is bleeding because she never told him
And he would never hear it
"I wanted to tell you, you saved me before you destroyed me"



When the rain came
It beat against my skin
Bruised...black and blue
So it was so it is
I have felt the ache of loss
I have neared death's hand
I have walked away from a love true
No shelter from the storm
And yet I yearn for it all



*I will always ache to be in your arms*



Such a deep ache is this
I see you everywhere and nowhere
Arms felt wrapped around
Left their shadows behind
A need instilled in all of me
The rain can not wash away
My memories of you

[wistfuldragon]

Rain came in drops
Each one kissed my
Skin whisper soft
Much the same as a
New love should
Standing
Walking
Dancing
Running
Jumping
I felt the rain
As it cleaned
Those ugly lost
Thoughts from me
It took me back
In time to a young
Time
When I ran through
Giant trees of green
Alone finding solace
In the quiet of all
For it was then
That I felt no cold
Never minded the wetness
Sheer joy in freedom
So sure I knew the
Who I was then
Now I find once
More I am free



The rain would not listen
It stayed...
Even as Misharae begged
Something she hardly does
For it to go away
In her heart it rained
Pouring through savagely
Tearing...ripping...melting
Hot searing drops
Still she begs
Please for a moment
Let the rain go away
No more pain...anger...rage
Just peace...


The Rain comes...then goes...
yet when it stays...days...
it wears down the armor...bears on the soul...
Winter cold...summer heat...spring flings...rains
Let it wash over me...rinsing the worries away...refresh me

[anirbas]

plip...plop...plip...plip...plop...plop...plippity plip plop plop...

[that's me, mimicing the voice of the rain coming down]

deep stuff, mon ami...moi heart goes out to toi...

as this is exactly the way I would feel if I ever lost...well...you know who...
"...you saved me before you destroyed me..."

keeler line, seestor...keeler, keeler line...

[wistfuldragon]

What I do about….you?
So many times I have asked…
No answers…none…
What then do I do?
Live without knowing all of you…
Dream about you…think…wonder…
All for naught…to no avail…live it…
Why should I?
Walk away…content with only this…
Maybe I should…just maybe…cripes…
Why should I?
I know what I want…I want you…
That’s all…simple enough…maybe…
Yeah simple enough…miles apart…
Worlds away…so different…yet same…
Poetic Idiot…that’s me…believing…
I could touch you…the way you touch me…
Dreaming of encounters that are just that…
Dreams…desires…unlived…unrealized…
Wow…sounds like me…sounds like me…
Dreaming of things never meant to be…
Just me…wanting you…to know all of you…
My sweet fascination…my closet desire…you…
Could I run to you…be brave…take the chance…
That in the end your arms would catch me…yeah…
Sure that’s it…I could…I should…okay I get it…
I should do just that…shouldn’t I?…couldn’t I?…
Maybe…

[wistfuldragon]

Sir David I didn't see your post before I posted the last...sorry...

And thank you much...I've been working on getting these together to post here...posting hog thats me...hehehehe...

Off on a run...more to come...

[wistfuldragon]

To matter…it’s what I’ve heard
Means just about everything…
Wow…I think I’ve wanted it too…
So hard to see yourself in others
A constant moving mirror…oh boy

“I want to matter to someone…I
Need to mean something…be
Important once in my life!”

Yes, he said…then she said it
Look there…the dark blonde in
The corner…she’s crying…she
Thought she mattered to him…
That was until…she found him
With another woman…now…
She doesn’t believe she ever
Meant anything to him…how low
She is now…drinking away memories

And then there’s the tall man…
He came in a few hours ago…
Quietly he spoke…over his drinks
“She was too complicated for me…
But for a time we had fun…I mattered
To her more than the rest…for a very
Brief time…I mattered to someone!”
He is looking for answers to why she
Left him…why their fun wasn’t love…

Yeah they all have their stories…
Just as I have mine…but they don’t
Know…I won’t tell…I am just here to
Listen…maybe I’ll learn something new


I have seen you
So often in my mind
A breath away for reality
Always that space between us
What my love would you ask
Of this being that adores you so
If anything I can give...I shall
Just to have that space filled
With your arms wrapped around me
Secure for even a brief moment in time
This you and me...how lonely we are
If only we could change that
Make the right choices...follow hearts
Leave our minds out of the loop...once
Yes...if only...maybe create beauty



Would you love the me you see
If you actually saw this me I am
I wonder so often if I am not enough
For all the magic you carry within you
Or perhaps I have some magic left in me
Just maybe...I do...down deep in those
Very untouched places of my soul
I wish I was in your arms now
Holding you instead of empty dreams
Please come to me or allow me to come to you
Such a simple thing...such a lonely dream



I would walked this earth to have you near
Run the track to act fast...to find you
Break all the rules save for ours
If you could love me as I do you
I am so the sad little creature
Wanting what may never be mine
Yet you know I can not help it
I need this us...the us we could be



Would anything I did
Be enough to have you
A true and real love
To call my own...
What is it that stops me
We've seen the fear
Faced the distance
We know the truth of it all
Yet damn it...I need you
Why are we alone
When here we are
Waiting for each other
Rain...snow...wind...sun
Another year and I am
No closer to you than before
Except for what we have here
When we chose to be here
In a reality of our making
Cripe...
I want this...more and more



A full moon shown down
Lighting my way
Blessing me with the
Smile on it's face
Making me wish I had you
Here with me to share
It all with...
Unlucky life alone
Under that huge moon
So says I
And the I's have it
Where are you my Lord?



Under the roughness
Inside the strength
There resides a weakness
You...
May haps I should say
The softness you bring
Into my being every time
I think of you...
The world sees a part of me
Yet somehow you see all
You hear my thoughts
Through the distance
Alone in the night
Whispers touch my skin
Words of love carried
On the winds to my heart
Blessed am I for that
Even if it is only
Whispers...it is magic
Your magic to mine




You & me

What a lovely fantasy
The thoughts of you & me
How the first touch
The first kiss
How lovely...

Still here I sit
Just thinking
Simply dreaming
Where has my bravery gone
When did I turn coward

There is that in you
That drives me to the brink
Makes me think
Ponder...wonder...question
How is it so...with you

You know don't you
Exactly what you do
When you do what you
Do to me...everytime
I know you do...

The dragon told me....



Seems I dream too often
Of the you that you are
I think maybe I am crazy
Wanting all that isn't mine
Yet I feel it could be
If I just do what I need
The actions taken to bring
Me to you...
Fear is ever there
Yelling in my ears
Soon you silly fool
Later will become never
Take the chance
Make the move
See him...run to him
Let him know in more
Than words how real
It is...it could be
So true...the world
Isn't ending
Save for the fact you
Will soon be leaving
Off to explore all your
New adventures...new places
All those new beautiful faces
In that...for that you could
Easily forget me...forget...
I have known that for so long
Your leaving was secured
Knowing it doesn't help facing
The after mass of my destruction
So much drama said...tis true
Yet I haven't fully made clear
What you mean to me...my lightness
How you have chased away some of
My Darkness...tis my Darkness
Tis me...has been for so long
Until you...now it hides...waits
But somehow I know I am stronger
I can fight it...not return to it




I was thinking of you
Of course
That's what you'd say
"Of course you would be
thinking of me!"
Mayhaps you would even
Laugh while saying it
Still what else can I do
Save for think of you
I want so much more
Yet I know my limits
And t'would seem
I have reached them
When it comes to you
Mayhaps not...
I should like to hope
That you My Sir
Would know...

[wistfuldragon]

So it seems
Yes it does
You've no need
No no need
Of me...
I was wrong
So wrong...
It's not that
You're gone
No no you were
Never really here
I knew that
Didn't I...
Passing time
Rushing thoughts
Missing the mark
Just off target
Each time...
Everytime...
Who am I
Where did I go
Was I here
Shouldn't I know
Without asking
Fires burning
Flesh falling
Ash building
Floating on the breeze
There I go
Flying at last
Yes see it is me
There that spec
Dust covering
A memory...
Yes...that's me










I remember when I didn't where a helmet when riding
I thought I was free...sweet intoxication...obsession
Not now...the laws (for good reason) say wear 'em
Time to ride again...alone...through the town
On mountain roads...to the lake shore...it's getting
Time to mount those long rides of brief freedom...



Beloved
Most beloved
What would you have
Of this wild spirit
That lives in your
Woman...
The desire breaks all
My will...strength...soul
For you I would bring
The touch of fire
Upon your skin
With a kiss
The melting of lips
For you beloved
I surely would
Bare my whole soul




Oh beloved
You have not come
I fear you never will
Or perhaps you will
Yet I am too blind
To see you...
Oh beloved
What do I do now
Where do I turn
You I can not find
Not even in the dreams
That were ours to share
Yes...not even in that
World we created for us
I cry...alone




I have missed all of you
From the scent of your skin
To the touch of your fingertips
Excuse this woman-child her need
Of this you that is you
In the days since last we talked
I have ran wild and wicked in life
Uncontrolled...
There is no explanation
Other than I miss you
My body aches for the knowledge of you
The soul yearns to touch another of its kind
Yes please forgive the need
Forgive me this woman-child
Who for no reason at all could...
Perhaps...may already...
Love you




There is one
Who has taken
A part of me
Something dead
Then breathed life into
Now I find it weakens
Again
I am more lonely now
Than ever afore
From the ache comes
Anger
For I have also weakened
I am no longer who I was
Worse I have not a clue
To who I am now becoming



For the you who
holds my heart...
I pray for your
safe return...
If only long enough
to show me you still
hold it...

[wistfuldragon]

and yet...
he is the only sword that wounds...
still and yet...
it is his touch that burns passions hot against skin...
here...now...tis his magic I have such need of that tears fall


This love...this me...this him...this need...our magic



and you...
of shadow come...
and you...
vision of myth...
and you...
keeper of magic...
and you...
holder of my heart...









I only ask...
Love me...



Bitter taste left on drained lips...
souring the after effects of radiant kiss...

I need you...badly...if only for a moment...if only for forever...



M'Lord have you forgotten me
the one you left behind...
The one whose Magic fell ill
while you departed...
I need you now...
As I have always...



Where did the magic go?

I had it in my hands...
so close...
Yet...
so briefly...



its been
so long...
gone...

this magic
that has
still is...you


Yesterday was a good day
she didn't have to think
about him...

All the yesterdays that
have come and gone...
were good...
if she didn't think about
him...

Yet....
She was lost...
living as a robot...
waking...working...eating...sleeping
dreamless nights...endless days...undead...unalive...

Yesterday was a good day...
she hardly thought about...
him...

Today...
not so good...
its all she can do...
to think of anything else...

[wistfuldragon]

There was a time
when it was your magic
that fed mine...
when it was your breath
that fed mine...
when it was your blood
that fed mine...
when it was your body
that fed mine...

Now is the time
when all of you
no longer sustains me...

[wistfuldragon]

Does it anger me
that I let you in...
But of course it does...

Does it still sting
when I see you...
But of course...

Am I still raw
bleeding out
of course...

Yes...
Yes...
Yes...

[tolteclogic]

some threads speak
more softly than others
some touch the
very heart of passion
and sing the many
beautiful possibilities
of life - so good
to see all this
and more
contained in
one thread
so many hidden
treasures - see
what we miss when
we don't hang out here
long enough to see what's
cooking - outstanding work

[wistfuldragon]

TL you speak so lovely
about these things
I've left on the
page...

Thank you very kindly...

[tolteclogic]

your words so much remind me
of this song...


White Sail

Raise a white sail if you love me
a black sale if you don't.
Seal me up in an impregnable tower
or surround me with a moat.
I've heard all the stories told about love
(unattainable and pure)
but there is one love of which i am sure.

Your fear as honed as a battle axe,
I'll bear my neck , I'll wear the scar,
and if my nerve should fail the task
I know your faith won't roam to far.
I've herad all the stories about love
(two souls into one)
but this tale of love is one we've just begun.

Isoldt had her Tristan,
but love potions are not what we need,
and Paris had his Helen but it was infatuation
that was plain to see.
What I desire is your trust to inspire
this love for you which grows in me.

Plant a rose tree on his grave
and on mine plant a vine,
as seasons pass and markers fade
watch them slowly interwine.
I've heard all the stories told about love
(till death do us part)
but our love is a vow which has been wrought
from heart to heart.

catch up reading, Lady Fair and Bright. lusturous, poetical pearls of love that leave us with souls of unrequitedness. I wish more for you than this...MUCH MORE...Nir.

[wistfuldragon]

TL...thank you...

Anir...as always my friend...

[dawness]

just awesome, wist!!! can i borrow your muse? LOL

[anirbas]

Love and such,
can mean so very much...
And so very little, as well--
when it's all said and done.
Or not said and done,
depending on whether
one is man enough
to at least say goodbye
if nothing else...It's just true,
some men have the testicles of gnats,
not bulls, and we are never for sure, which ones--
until it's all said and done...Or not, as the case, may be...

[anirbas]

ggglgggl...pullleaze forgive my awfuliciuos commensensical poem, Mish...tis an effort,
to make you giggle and grin...be glad when you're over him and back in the swim...Nir.

[wistfuldragon]

Dawness...he is not mine any longer...so feel free...lol...

TL...I spin fantastical of what I know little...love is my mystery...

Lady Anir'...you always make me giggle...you bring a smile most needed when most needed...as to being over the him you speak...him I am over...the dream of Him...I still have...wistful me

[tolteclogic]

Now reading more closely
i feel more the pain you
have epressed so exquisitely...
hitting a thread in only
bits and pieces is never
a true basis for response
So many factors go into
a relationship some mind
sets simply to not coincide
with others... and very often
even similar mind sets may see
the same set of beliefs in an entirely
different fashion these are the ground
rules that must be paved from the very
beginning agreement in basic life
objectives in serious relations
how we see things what is
most important to us...
what good is a playboy
swinger mentality if it isn't
free to roam? some cults see
sexual envolvement without
emotional attachment as the
the path to tantric enlightenment
and prefer perfect strangers
in ritual practice as if this were
a good thing... it is always good
to not only know where we stand
but to express this and not to
get into projecting expectations
which may prove wrong.
and to this end i wish you all
the best in your quest
for the open heart
in spirit
tl
