A Photograph of Time that You Lost


You think

that you can make that time up, 
and
make it alive
again.

Take the photographs
but 
ignore the moment
as it is
actually
happening.

The sad thing is
that
you never get it back.

You can have your photographs, 
and 
look at the people in their romantic, rose coloured glasses. 

Loss disguised as memories.

I hope 
someday
you learn to appreciate 
the moment-the gift,

and not just the photograph.

Liquid Space


Liquid Space
filling me up.
A Sea of Love,
satisfying my longing.
Swimming Around
in this liquid space,
I begin to feel loved,
to feel whole,
to feel fixed.

Liquid Space
Fulfill me in all my glory.
Show me to a New World
that I belong to.

Ambitious Heart


I am
 an ambitious heart. 

I want my dreams 
as much as my dreams want me.

Ambition is not a crime.

Wanting to nurture 
your own whole person 
is not a crime. 


I want a life 
that when I am 99,
that when I am a 100, 

I will be able to say, 
I HAVE LIVED. 


If I cannot say that, 
 I have already been dead
a long time.


My heart is ambitious 
for soul, 
for love, 
for peace, 
for the world, 
for people.

Your ambition is your nurturing. 

We need both. 
Exclusions need not apply.
