Infinity

Your love is around me
My love is around you
Warm, halcyon belong
Melts the bitterness of when we each had no one

Your heart lives inside me
My heart lives inside you
With beat as fiery steeds
Pounding, revolving a light that can't be outrun

Now, no shroud can hinder the bright, rendering sun
No more lone, no more cold
Helios splashes gold
Circle unto circle

Your love is around me
My love is around you
(Always)

Ethereal

E-the-re-al
Falling in love, lifted to flight, finding (Euphoria)
It's all ahead of us

Let's hold this moment as long as we can
We won't be here again

E-the-re-al

Feel the rainy night move through our bodies
The angels are weeping
Their loud wings are restless
Spirited tears of happiness, earthbound

The sleepy candlelight is heavenly
Celestial confetti
Iridescent flame-drops
Imprinting memories' soft afterglow

E-the-re-al

High could die if we don't keep it alive
Remember this bliss, ethereal kiss

E-the-re-al
Falling in love, lifted to flight, finding (Euphoria)
It's all ahead of us

Powder Blue

With everything, every time, you make me feel bad
With everything, every time, you make me feel sad
Only one fad remains profoundly true (you're into)

Every situation, every conversation
It's always about you
All, always about you
All, always about you

No matter how much I try, attempts go out in vain
I can't be part of your sunshine, your circle, your plane
You're harder on me ... more than you are ... anyone else
You're harder on me ... more than you are,... of yourself (of course)

(I guess) there's exclusive niche with elite, enlightened view
Made superbly for you
Whatever I say, whatever I think, pales powder blue
(topic twist, turn it 'round)
Until it's about you
All, always about you
All, always about you

And in my small mind, small life, small world,... (what a waste)
You're thrilled to take me down a notch and put me in my place

Whatever I say, whatever I think, pales powder blue
(topic twist, turn it 'round)
Until it's about you
All, always about you
All, always about you

Pretty Baby

Kindness can be mistaken for weakness
Mindless neglect can laden uniqueness
Keep 'em guessing and never lose control
Creep 'em, pressing,... unnerve, muse, rock ... and roll
(Pretty Baby, I get you more than you know)
Live, learn, collapse, rise and rule pain's black hole
Magnetize me, pull me inside your soul
(Pretty Baby, I get you more than you know)

Open up an old wound, peel back the scar
Remember what it's gotten you so far
Mad-cool, beautiful, different,... that's fine
Perfect can be toxic as turpentine
(Pretty Baby, you are my sugar-high)
Damaged but love-delectable as wine
Advantaged, enigmatical, divine

Someone has a break because they've had
... to be strong for so long (on their own)

There is no maybe, my heart makes your throne
Pretty Baby, I won't let you be alone

Pretty Baby, I won't let you be alone

~ Message ~

I've been away for a bit because I have moved from
California back to my home state of Oklahoma.
It was a long move and there were many things to do.
I'm happy to be out of California.
It just was never home to me. (I'll leave it at that)

Sorry that I haven't had any posts but I'll be adding
something in the next few days & more in the time ahead.

Thank you - for my friends/followers ~ everyone that's left
comments/feedback. I appreciate your consideration to visit.
I hope, in the future, those coming to this blog will find
something pleasing to read.

Enough from me ... more posts to come ... soon.

Love,
Kay

Carpe Diem (amare)

I could sit with what ifs, one thousand ways
Pine what could have been, as poignant portrays
(not in a million years)

I could parse down this opportunity
'Til gift of you twists with anxiety
(not in a million years)

Carpe diem (amare)
Crystal clear
You are near
Time is dear
Now and ... here

Opt in ... willing, acquiescent to tears
Be shackled by pause, imprisoned by fears
Never tilt view, never let life switch gears
(not in a million years)
(not in a million years)

Carpe diem (amare)
Crystal clear
You are near
Time is dear
Now and ... here

Not in a million years ... would I not
Seize the day (to love) ... you

Translation (Latin):
Carpe diem - Seize the day
Amare - to love

Will-o'-the-Wisp

I do remember you,
Wandering a moonless Midnight and willow tree
We were forgotten apparitions left to roam
Do you remember me?

Old souls and ghostly light
We courted our thoughts, as bright rhapsody in dance
And the fearless minuet drew us deep inside
- Chance mystical romance

I circled your voice
It was an unyielding sound from some, distant room
Your touch found and woke my loveless, slumbering heart
- Chilled, silent as the tomb

Kindred spirits dare on,
As glowing flecks blowing, fog rolling to ignite
We rode stormy waves that would destroy dreaming
And held each other tight

Do you remember me,
From where the moonless Midnight sweeps the willow through?
We are the phantoms of Love's own haunting thunder
I do remember you

(Do you remember me?)
(I do remember you)

Changeling

Take all that I am
I have nothing more left to give
"Be strong" ... is clanging
Abide and hide secrets that live

The schoolyard and field are empty
Tether-game chains resonate chime
Funny thing, is time
Funny thing, is time

Cold, shaking fingers cannot play
Swings and slides wait for tiny hands
No one understands
No one understands

I've met some like you
Familiar, fatherly-strangeling
But numbness saved me
And released this, darkly changeling

Stoical daughter has come home
Shivering, little girl has grown
Raggedy memories remain
Metal maypoles, streamers of chain
Unsettled, lingering refrain

And no one really knows ... the child who comes and goes
