Oceans

Life’s least motions

are exalt emotions

touching the rare

and exposing bare

the heart’s devotions;

love another’s care

never to seek or dare

to cross alone - life’s oceans.

A Place of Pain

The air is froth in the madness of sanity

where reason slips into clouds of enmity

between the light’s inure

and a velvet dream’s allure

seeking flight’s answer for height

while the abyss explains the night;

the rain’s graces will not abide

pain’s need to hide.
