I miss the smile that so delights

I miss the smile
that so delights my soul
As often as does a wish
I harbour all your memories
in the safe haven of my denials

On days like today
when the sun is full and hot
I reach in there and pull out a picture
of perfect past tense.
It is of you and you are smiling

My future is so dependant
on how I view the past
How best to fill the void
of life without you.

One Day

One day I will let go of paradise
And walk in my own parade
One day I will let go of the day
and embrace the night in silence

What better way to walk among the stars
then to use memories
like cosmic stepping stones
to reach the place you are

Where galaxies look like milk drops
in my coffee, that looks like the stuff
that fills outer space, black and light
still stiring

One day I will have no past
and therefore a virgin future
Where each sun will be new
holding out more promises

Nothing to say

I have nothing to say
when my voice is with you
My feet can think of nowhere
to go but in your direction

My words lie lost
within my pockets
my pen is yet
to get out of bed
