I miss you


As I sit here alone waiting your letter
Rain hits the window on this dark afternoon
I go outside, wind breaks up against my face
I’m thinking here of you
And how we used to be
Owl flies overhead
I miss you like the end of days
One breath I am returned
A memory of truth
Taken in delight
Forever it may be
Take your hand in mine
Fly into the night
With your arms around me
Forever we may be


===============================
I wrote this poem about a boy I was infatuated with at the time. His name was Kai and he lived in Sydney. He made me a mix tape of Cradle of Filth and Semisonic - that's love, baby!!

Invincible I Am

Invincible I am
Empowered I am
Standing 
Tall and Strong

Invincible I am
Empowered I am
Against the seas
Against the dark

Invincible I am
As the Tower of Light

I am the Tower
I am Light
I am invincible

*****************
This is one of my favourite pieces. I remember I dreamt about a tower of light which stood in the centre of the sea, surrounded by five guardians.... Then I painted the tower, and wrote the poem. (1998).
