the valley of id


restrained color...
   mantles the sky.
amorous twist ...
    drifts across my visage.
depth of a thousand fathoms...
      in my gaze.
notions echoing...
    in this vast grotto.
infiltrated by veracity...
    the chimera dissipates.
emotional deluge..
    falling and rising.
anticipation... ... ...
    generously surrenders to sorrow.
belated sagacity ...
    strolls in with a leer .
rationale...
    awakened by it's mirth .
effusive blush...
    pursues understanding.
ascending mt.  ego...
  from the valley of id.

with us

here i go all over again...
 keen on the unchanged pattern.
not fulfilled with the conclusion...
 of preceding encounter.
still looking for an ambiguity...
 that will amend it all.

how can you let go...
 when you never had a hold...
 of things to begin with?
was it existent...
 or merely a reverie?
can i embrace nothing?

i am so vacant...
 when you are not near.
can't we rip this curtain in two?!
or am i only fooling myself...
 with stage show?
is this a histrionic display of desperation?!

i question the soundness...
 of something so timid.
is love not bold and brave to prevail?!
maybe the enemy is my own timetables?
thinking i should have everything just so?
maybe the bravery comes in the waiting!
a willingness to just see where it goes.

then...
as if i hear a sweet wisper...
a gentle voice...
 that speaks in my ear.
let it be what it is...
 and let it go where it will...
time will share it's wisdom...
 with us.

yes


some questions...
 we ask…
    simply to hear
     the sound
         of the  words
       in the air…
 and imagine
    the hope... of
       yes
