LET US JUST BE


I lie down
In your arms
Entwine my fingers with yours
Gaze at the stars
Feel your chest rise and fall
And just be.

No words need to be spoken
Let silence not evade us
Let peace not elude us
Let us just be
And everything around us be constant
To stay like that forever
What would it mean?
to be together, forever?
It is Utopia
As nothing is constant
Not you, not me
Not the world around us
Perhaps things are just not meant to be
Between us

Yet,
I lie down
In your arms
Entwine my fingers with yours
Gaze at the stars
Feel your chest rise and fall
And just be

A GLIMMER OF HOPE


It hurts from within
When I fail to dance
Pour all that I feel
Into a jarring performance

Stretch my arms out to the skies
Point my toes to go underground
Something there is that I am looking for
That I haven’t yet found

I try and reach out
Yet, I get it all wrong
I might have to start all over
I know I have to stay strong

There is a glimmer of hope
My hard work will surely pay
Someday, everyone will watch me
While I glide across the floor and sway
