The Strangeness of Dreams
To wake and remember
a dream is a rarity
What from these subconscious
worlds haunts us
compels us
and takes on the name
for our highest expectations
of ourselves
To occasionally glimpse
a world alien
or a world strangely
familiar in ways
words often fail
What are we telling ourselves
What do the unseen voices
of the farthest planes
wish us to infer
To wake
to sleep
so often do we
traverse this distance
do we know
where this moment is?

What Remains After
Forgotten loves and crushes
Moving forward
Selective amnesia
Days fall like soldiers
Faces with no names
Remembrances of touch
Fingers on intimate silk
Desire a warm creature
My hands on your hair

Toma'a
Don't care to be overwhelmed by the natural ease
Of a carefree smile
Yet
I am
and it belongs to you
I have never told you
I am sure
you don't know
about this intimate infatuation
Beauty can only go so far
and that is a hard-earned piece of wisdom
but in you I see
that duty to family
to responsibility
and most importantly
to honor the truth of yourself
Oh how endless I find your beauty
in such light
I watch mute from afar
Of a carefree smile
Yet
I am
and it belongs to you
I have never told you
I am sure
you don't know
about this intimate infatuation
Beauty can only go so far
and that is a hard-earned piece of wisdom
but in you I see
that duty to family
to responsibility
and most importantly
to honor the truth of yourself
Oh how endless I find your beauty
in such light
I watch mute from afar

Cellophane
Your cellophane heart cannot hide
its desires.
It beats and yearns
for the sky
it wishes to kiss.
