Dreams of You

I dream of you
with eyes wide open
you now appear
before me
during the course of my day
every second woman
that passes
I mistake for you –
it seems
I gravely underestimated
your attraction
your orb tightens,
a fiery comet circling
merging is inevitable
the silence
of night
is no longer able to contain you
you have escaped my dreams
to vex my waking hours
clad in wisps
laced with glistening
stellar dust
(you are) impossible to resist
but you forget
you are entering the Sun’s orb
nothing so close is able to escape
its gravitational attraction
without being changed forever
you have entered willingly
like a moth you spin
in ever diminishing
circles;
the irresistible flame
that fascinates/captures you
is Love
gambits change
but with each ingress
the end
is inevitable
dissolution
if you would escape my embrace
do not venture
too near
if you wish to pass unscathed
distance is required
the price of intimacy
is transformation,
two entities merging
becoming
One
Love’s Embrace knows no other way

spin me a dream
cat-eyed girl
i thirst for release;
my temporal bonds
are heavy with
the tedium of mortality,
elevate my spirit
crucify the lie
that incarcerates my soul;
release me,
open the doors to
infinity
my one true
love.
liberate my being,
remove this gross
terrestrial burden
from me.
i yearn for the outermost
limits of existence,
deliver me to the shimmering edge
of creation,
raise me to heights
that only
Gods inhabit --
surrender ur magic chalice
that i may imbibe ur mystic
potion and fly;
i am in need of ur
most precious elixir.
dance on my pleasure-dome
feline woman,
lick my spine with your
lightning eyes,
cavort on my hemispheres and
tantalise my mind
i am yours,
imprisoned in delight.
would you forsake
or exile me to this dreary,
desolate place forever;
this soulless land of the
lost?
surely i have earned
my freedom
to be beside u again,
take me home
to the walled city of
heavenly delights that i may
savour its intoxicating
draughts and partake
of its exquisite delicacies again;
take me,
i am ready,
i long to lose myself
in your ecstatic embrace
forever.
