© 2004 Not Sleeping Too Well


Miracle's Mind
The Mirror

take this moment
to look inside of me
there you will find
your complexity

take the time
to look inside of you
there you will see
my longing is true

I desire your breath
that sustains my life
the scar on my heart
has lifted in flight

drift not from me
keep me ever close
the desire of this
controls me most

our souls are but one
on this road traveled by two
a definate way
of seeing it through

today I wish that
yesterday I knew
that tomorrow will bring
endless love for you

my hand in yours
our fingers entwined
if it’s peace you crave
I will give you mine


<<Previous>>Destination Unknown

take me on a journey
into your clever mind

traveling  to a place
that has no exit time

a plain of understanding
that no one seems to see

a momentary loss
of this stark reality

cast away your dreams
to allow them to come true

breaking on the rocks
we’ll find the better view

crawl inside my eyes
there you’ll truly see

I am bound to you
as you are bound to me


Freedom

Confusion may be
where we are
Uncertainty lingers
In the stars

But I know
there is a way
To escape the life
we have today

Take my hand
And feel the ease
of our echoing
freedom breeze

It’s made for a soul
That is shared by two
It was created for the spirit
Of me and you

Strong are we
for what’s ahead
You are me
and we are led

By the hand
Of an unseen force
That gives us life
And reveals our course

Intuition

regret not
what your heart desires
ignite the flames
that fuel this fire

moments stolen
a glance will betray
the intuition that
our eyes convey

swiftly you move me
into your lure
turning my insides
into a blur

lead me onto
higher ground
guide my way
so I can be found

the meaning will unravel
soon it will be shown
reveal itself completely
what we’ve always known

Living A Moment With You

As I enter this door of perception
I feel at ease
As I sit and contemplate our journey
I feel inspired
As I watch your mouth move as you speak
I am in awe
As I live in this moment
I need nothing more
But more will and did find me
As it always does with you
I emerge from my cocoon
A place I’ve spent so much time
An innocent butterfly exposed
You knew it
You felt it
You saw it
Even before it was released
I float over to you in my shield
Made of passion, intensity and trust
You embrace my soul
And treat it as though it was
Your own
For it is

On the Edge

Slip your hand
around my neck
pull me towards you
please infect

me with your need
that makes me scream
inside these waves
of tortured dreams

I want to gasp
for the the air you give
I need to be freed
so that I can live

tear the layers
from my skin
swim in the abyss
I carry within

how far will you
let yourself go
when I’m in your hands
and in your soul

I long for the darkness
I know that dwells
inside your protective
immortal shell

I want you to take me
to the edge of delight
dangle me mercilessly
and watch me take flight

to the outer realm
from which we were born
finding our spirits
and never to mourn

the being that’s been
held by the stars
a moment of truth
of the soul that
WE are

Afterburn

there lies a wish
beneath my skin
a constant pleasure
of a deeper sin
to
consume me whole
you must be rough
to scratch my surface
with your touch
please
cast your spell with
no remorse
choke me back
with all your force
to
harness this passion
you must let me yearn
for a place of desire
that makes my flesh burn

Blood In, Blood Out

My bloodline aches for the moment
To pour itself into this existence
It turns me into a living, writhing being
Where I feel more alive than my first breath

These walls crave my life force
And takes it with no remorse
The blood I spill nourishes
The soul of the chamber where my heart
Beats for you and you alone

Though I am in your grasp
I float away
Into the world between worlds
Where you live with me
Where you will die with me

Reminents of me are left
For the birds to pick at
The birds of paradise
That encircle this bloody mess
That we have created

I am exactly who I am
I am exactly where I want to be
I am always accepted here

I embrace the bondage that I feel
I caress the restraint that lingers in the air
I need to feel my blood pumping through your veins

I will wait for the echo of your thoughts
As they find their way into my mind
And remind me just who I am
Just who you are
And just who we are
while lost
In this crimson tide

The Taken

I took a step into the future
I saw a still small pond
I reached to touch it with my hand
To see if I belonged

To what it held deep inside
It’s hopeful, endless sea
I felt its coolness and it’s heart
And something was revealed to me

A smooth hard bone floated up
And took me by the hand
It led me into a world of dreams
I tried to understand

Just then a wild wind
Came from the north
And tried to break the bond we made
Using all it’s force

But oh how I held onto what strength
I had just been given
It showed me how I had lived
And how I should be living

You may wonder what this means
And now I must confess
It came to me in a dream
Represented as a test

Would I stay on the shore
Like many years gone by
Or would I heed my souls request
And dive deep inside

For this pond represents to me
Our creation when we met
In an instant, a lifetime ago
I was caught within your net

Your swift strong hand pulled me in
My futures at your mercy
The eternal promises we have made
Will keep us safe upon this journey

For I looked deep inside
the universe’s plan
I saw a glimpse of our days
And now I understand

What I feel that I see
Is myself as truly whole
Because I’ve found in you my love
The other half of my soul

When She's On Top

This bed is on fire
with passion and tears
Releasing desires
that have been
carried for years

Can you see me
burning for you
Inside this chamber
of constant renew

Happy are we
who let it all go
Of cravings that seem
to have tortured us so

I'm not afraid
to drown in your arms
I'm captured in full
by the webb
of your charms

The look you cast out to me
on this throne
Tells a story of us
traveling home

I need your lips
to caress mine
down there
Your eyes ache
when you
attentively stare

Into the core
of my helpless
lost soul
Waiting for you
to make me
feel whole

This bed is on fire
while wild winds blow
You cannot deny
It's burning out of control

Trust me
when I
tell you
It's certainity
that carries me
through

Imagining the day
when I know
that this bed
will smolder
in a beautiful red

And when they come
to put out our flames
Hand and hand
they'll see our remains
