Wild

 Wild


Magic happens 

when we're busy making plans,

finding moments of grace 

in the silence 

between

one heartbeat and another, 

adventure found, 

not in seeking danger 

but in striving to be whole

peace created

not in the world

but deep within our soul

as we open the door

and swim on the breath of fate

an open heart

seeking love

a wild spirit finding life

And She Hugged Him Tightly

 And She Hugged Him Tightly She hugged him so tightly  the air between them turned to mist and in the mist rose words unspoken of love and hate, desire and need words of lust and betrayal, happiness and pain no sooner were these worded formed did  the mists dissolve into yearning for a different life a life free to seek her own fate or drown as hope closed about her face gently at first but with ever greater weight as  she took one last breath before exhaling all the sin she carried for others in her soul never knowing if she would wake forever changed  or crippled and bent by the weight of the world one last thought they can never hurt her again
