Poetry, out there, somewhere, sharing the muse.

The Eyes have it

Eyes are the window to the soul
can't wait until eye can see you.
eye have looked for you all my life

Seen you in many different forms
looked for you in many different places
eye saw you when I looked into my father's eyes

Eye see you when I look into my brother's eyes
My heart bursts with recognition
I cradle my soul in my hands, humming
in wonderment at how I've missed you.

You have been there, in everyone I've meet
All those I fell in love with before
It was you I was seeing
How could I have not recognised you?

Music uplifts me, draws me closer to the eternal
But you, I just look into the eyes, see into the
hearts, gaze into the souls of my dear, sweet
loves, and there you are looking back at me.

Who am I without you?

When you speak
My words are spoken
When you joke
My laughter flows
When you walk
My shoes leave footprints
When you talk
My soul it knows

Who you are
Is my story
Who am I
Your answer too
Can we really live alone
People need people need people need people
What's the question?
How to tell you I'm not whole

Never realised
till you came here
that I'll never be complete
That parts of me are missing
Until returned to me
When you come into my life
or when anyone passes through
Another piece of me returns
The jigsaw slowly getting done

I have no idea for how long
You & I we will be friends
I rejoice & wonder at you
For a moment without end
If its only for a whisper
that I have you in my life
I will once again thank God
For the jigsaw pieces person I've become.

I'm sorry Jay, you've been usurped

There is a lightness in my soul
From talking with you
There is a sadness in my soul
At your hurt

There is a part of me rejoicing
once again
As a missing piece of me has been
found

Shattered soul, no more is broken
pieces coming together once more
With the laughter & irreverence you provoke
Life is once again restored
