"Follow your bliss and the universe will open doors where there were only walls." Joseph Campbell


You found me, pursued me,

held me so fine You fed all of my passions

time after time


We’d close in more intimate,

as lovers will do Then run away scared,

as I play the fool


Come on back through

my open door I’ve left it cracked open,

just as before Only for you,

no matter you’ve roamed Always come back to my

home sweet home


Teasing and pleasing,

our fire so hot I’m captivated by you,

like it or not And my feelings,

I know scare you away I think maybe you’ll

stick around, some day


Foolish as can be,

I again set you free Oh wait, that’s you…

running from me Here we are again,

goodbye sweet friend It seems this time

we’ve reached our end


Not so fast,

more time has passed And look who’s back

again at long last How long will it be

that we play this game? I mean it’s fun,

but something has changed


As you continue

to light up my heart Same as you have

right from the start Even if the fire

don’t shine as bright It’s only you that

I have in my sights


Months to years,

and to me it seems clear I want you; you want me,

let go of fear Hang on this time;

let’s see what transpires It seems we’ve built

more than just fires


So come back through

my open door I’ve left it cracked open,

just as before Only for you, no matter

you’ve roamed Always come back to my

home sweet home

I find most joy when I'm in communion with the ocean, or most any body of water (if you hadn't already figured that out from the many references in my writing).

 

Exploring new cultures through travel, or immersing with all the senses with the men I've loved, is pure pleasure, and lingers in beautiful poetic memories indefinitely.  Read More
