..Friends Or Lovers.. We traveled the world on separate paths stealing glances between the trees and sharing moments from afar Though our voices could call out in comfort our hands could never touch and no matter how dear or true our hearts might have been they could never beat as one As we moved along two lives in parallel we swapped stories on quiet nights and bared ourselves like never before we marched forward pushing through tragedy and triumph with a constant eye to the path beyond aching for what awaited through the howling trees Though we picked up fellow travelers and bonded with other souls the face beyond the trees haunted us both But as two lives in parallel doomed never to meet we made our own happiness and found our own dreams while waiting for the two paths to meet Yet, even as we wished on every star for our roads to intersect we knew we could be in the arms of another unable to share the desired embrace Still, no cruel twist of fate could keep our two souls apart and whether we meet as friends or lovers neither shall endure a broken heart So as we stand here silently two faces between the trees let’s raise our glass to toast the stars and give thanks to friends and lovers For no matter which role you play the result will be the same two hearts will be light at least for one day ______________________________________________ Future Seasons how could I have known the magnitude of your pull on me? throughout every fiber straight to my core maybe I was blind or didn't want to see the obvious, too scared to notice or even believe this love I've always dreamed of, always so sure of always knew would one day come, was standing right here in front of me ... and what did I do? I ran like a deer straight into denial like a fool with a PHD, tortured myself senselessly what did I think I would accomplish this way? how to erase all your pain? figure out who not to blame? I know it's impossible, yet I live for the day all the slashes you suffered at my recklessness will somehow, magically blow away... I will forever remember the promise that maybe still, on that horizon of love if I can get past myself and learn to overcome this fear of not knowing it all, of losing it all without controlling it all with no surprises that maybe there is a chance for 'us' ... on those nights when I'm falling inside myself to that place with no answers and only bad luck if any luck while chasing around those fractured reprieves, and trying to destroy those demons of jealous rage I will remember that possibility could still be there, waiting, over there just under dawn's first blush on that tender bloom of a promise once spoken a season to be, maybe then, I could finally taste that which I've always believed __________________________________________________ Sometimes Time Bothers Me We climb this hill to happiness. to GOALS. to LOVE. to a PRIZE. Something we believe will transform our lives and make them worth living. And as we're climbing this mountain, we are so excited because we can see ourselves getting closer, we can envision ourselves obtaining IT. So excited to be getting somewhere. It’s all up. and Up. and UP. But as we get closer to the top of this mountain, As we are nearing the climax, we grow fearful of the descent that must swiftly follow the peak. And so out of fear of the unknown, the loss of control, the END, In an effort to delay the conclusion, to freeze time, smiles, kisses, success, we DRAG OUR FEET! Irritating our partners, and exhausting the collective moral. And you'll approach the top, as you knew you would, it was the only certainty of this exploration: Not that you would get there, but that it would END. you're FALLING. Grabbing at air, Clawing at stability that snaps under your fingers as you plummet. Reaching as far as you can, and you're hands: t h e y j u s t w o n t r - e - a - c - h and you: fall fall fall Till you hit the bottom, and realize/decide when to get back up. But you gotta full impact smack that ground with all you have, because if you landed on your feet, you'd shatter your legs. You gotta self destruct to self actualize. You gotta ignite and burn to resurrect. They got it all wrong about love, you know. First there's the climb… Then there's the fall. ___________________________________________ well theres a few...hopefully some of you will apprecaite the words. but nothing can compare the experience unless they were in my shoes alone.
