Setting Fire to Rain

as each day lays down spent
and every moment already gone
can finally be laid to rest
there in that last waking moment
where exhaustion from life’s constant needs
….being fulfilled
and the euphoric bliss of beckoned dreams meet
that’s the place where our time begins
in that simple space

we have always traveled together

'mid-night dawns stormy
beneath a cloudless sky
as the whimper of falling rain
ribbons wet tendrils and damp flesh
there where the heat between
hand’s arc and pearl’s cup
believe in nothing more
but the fire still to come'

without looking at you, I see you
without touching you, I feel you

'thunder roars tumescent
summoning liquid sunshine
there beneath glistering skies
where the aroma of rain teases
as a firestorm brews between
finger’s grip and lightning’s rod
burning an untamed flame
until finally….setting fire to rain'

we have always traveled together
in that simple space
there in that place where our time began
where the euphoric bliss of beckoned dreams
….being fulfilled
meets the reality of life’s constant needs
there in the glimmering wake of day
that intensifies twilight’s honesty
accentuating so much possibility
in every moment still yet to be
