PARTED SEA
PARTED SEA
IN THE SPACE OF THE SWEET
SMELL IN MY NOSE
OF THE FRAGRANCE
AND THE DANCING LIGHT
OF MY OUTER
CANDLE TO MY INNER
CANDLE
THE FLAMES
PULSE IN AND OUT
LIKE LITTLE FIREY
PIXIES
CLOSING MY EYES
TO THE MUSIC
THE SENSUAL
THOUGHTS ARISE
FROM MY HEART
TO REACH OUT TO YOU
I SEE THE SHINE
IN THE DARKNESS
MOVING TOWARDS ME
AND THE DANCE
IS PRESENT
I SMILE
AND I CRY
A TEAR
FOR THE MOMENT
WITH LOVE
IS LIKE THE
PASSING OF DAY
TO NIGHT
AND NIGHT TO DAY
THE FLUTE IN MY EARS
PASSES ME BY
FOR NOW
AND THE DANCING
GODDESSES
CIRCLE ME
IN THRICE ACROSS
THE PARTED SEAS
THAT FLOW
AND EBB
THE TIME I FIND
THE JEWEL
WITHIN MYSELF
AND RELEASE
IT OUTWARD
TO THE WORLD
IN JOY AND PEACE
I RESIDE
WITHIN THE SENSUAL
SPACES
KEEPING MY PROMISE
THAT IS LOST
WITHIN AND WITHOUT
FROM MY LEFT
AND MY RIGHT
THE WAVES FLOWS
OUT LIKE RED GLOWS
TO THE EDGES
AND IN THE CENTER
THE PEARL
OF MY DESIRE
BECKONS ME
TO TRAVEL TO HER
AND I HAVE
TO REMAIN HERE
YET I
SEE THAT I CAN
AND WOULD
AND SHE
THEN WALKS IN THE
SWEET DANCE
MOVING ONE
LEG TO THE RIGHT
AND TURNS
THEN ONE LEG
TO THE LEFT
AND TURNS
THEN RUNS
ON ONE SIDE
SHE STRIKES
AND DOWN THAT ONE
FALLS
TO THE OTHER
SHE OFFERS THE
DRINK
AND SHE SOARS
UP ABOVE HER HEAD
AND IN THAT MOMENT
I GAIN THE
CLOSENESS
OF WHICH IS WHICH
AND WHERE I
NOW AM CONSUMED
FROM THE TREE ABOVE
TO THE BRANCHES
HERE BELOW
AND THE SNAKE
THAT NOW IS AWAY
MY VISIONED EYE
OPENS AND
I SOAR IN THE SKY
WITH THE CLOUDS
SPARKLING
TO THE BEAT
OF THE DRUMS
AND THE STRINGS
INTO THE TWILIGHT
WHERE I REST
HOPING THAT
THE KISS
THAT IS COMING
WILL HOLD ME
OVER
FOR ALL ETERNITY
FOR LOVE
HAS REACHED IN
AND GRABBED HOLD
ON A HIGHER
PLANE
TO THE
NOW HERE
AND WHERE
I WISH I COULD BE
I BREAK THE HOLD
FOR A MOMENT
IN MY PRESENT
STATE
A DRUNKEN
FOOL IN LOVE
FOR THE FINGERS RUN
DOWN MY ARM
TO MY BACK
AND THEN MY
LEGS
AND BACKUP
I REST MY HEAD
UPON THE WATERS
FLOWING DOWN
LIKE A SHOWER
IT DRIPS DOWN MY BACK
AS I REST THERE
IN MY DREAMSTATE
OF A MOMENT
WHERE
WATER MET THE AIR
AND AIR MET
THE FIRE INSIDE
GROUNDED
BACK INTO THE
EARTH
BY THE VOID
TRAVELS
OF SPACE AND TIME
TO …
TOUCH
AND FEEL THE CARESSES
OF WHERE
ONLY MY MIND
CAN GO
FROM THE
BODY OF MY EDGES
THE ULTIMATE
BLISS
IS REACHED
NOT IN THE
LIVING
LEVELS
OF INNOCENCE
BUT IN THE
EXPERIENCES
OF MY PAST
INTO MY PRESENT
AND
SEEKING
OUR FUTURE
THE STILLNESS
OF THE GREEN LEAVES
AND THE BLUES
TURNING INTO PURPLES
THE COLOURS OF LOVE
TO FEEL YOU
NEXT TO ME
RESTING THERE
IN THE NOTHINGNESS
OF OUR ONENESS
SO BECKONS
THE ACHE
OF MY FLOWER
WHERE THE SNAKE
FINDS ME
AND
TRAVELS UPWARD
TIL
THERE IS NO
OTHER
THE TINGLING
AND RINGING
AND EVER SO
GENTLE RHYTHMS
OF
BACK AND FORTH
UP AND DOWN
MOVING
YOUR HANDS
IN MY HANDS
OUR HAIR
ENTWINED
SO DIVINE
THEN THE PETALS
FALL DOWN
LIKE SNOW IN THE
WINTER
HITTING THE WATER
AND TRAVELING
DOWN THE RIVER
OUT TO THE BAY
INTO
THE OCEAN
WHERE I PLUNGED
DEEP WITHIN
FROM THE ARROW
SHOT MY WAY
DIDN'T MISS
TO LAYING UNDERNEATH
AS THE DANCE
IS ABOVE ME
FOR I AM
WHO I AM
AND YOU ARE
WHO YOU ARE
AND
WE ARE WHO WE ARE
AND WILL
ALWAYS BE
FOR YOU CAN NOT HOLD
ONTO LOVE
IN THE PASSION STARES
AND KEEP
THE
JEWEL WITHIN
IT COMES AND GOES
LIKE THE FLICKERING
FIRE LIGHT
BY
MY CANDLE
STEADED BY
THE MAGNETIC
ATTRACTIONS
OF THEN
TO NOW
LIKE THE VINE
GROWING
UP INSTEAD OF DOWN
WILL I WALK
THIS PATH
FOR
LOVE
HAS
HARSHLY
AWAKENED IN ME
A FIRE
THAT WILL NEVER
GO OUT
AS LONG
AS THIS RIVER
FLOWS
THE ANIMA
OF LIFE
FOR I REST HERE
WITHIN THESE
WALLS
IN
THE ETERNAL
SLEEP
WAITING
FOR
THE KISS
TO BRING ME
BACK AROUND.
