Shadowlight Awakened

Words without color
Are words drawn from an empty well
From fathoms of dusty knowledge that fade
As time encroaches time

And sounds without song
Are but shards of empty utterances
Where once melody passed from quill to paper, from page to book, from heart to soul
But are now mere ellipses to nowhere

I need not request you touch my heart
To envelope our beings with shadow's light
And create choruses of joy atop the palette of love

You have forged the arc of our journey
Wherein awaits the mystery
That patience bestows on time
That willingness allows for hope
And courage delivers with love

Be my Shadowlight
Dance with me in the whiteness of infinite rainbows
Even as answers linger in shadows

With patience granting little

Today I Began A Walk Through Unknowns

Through questions without answers
Through memories not yet born
Through answers to be earned

Tonight I Continued My Walk Through Tomorrow

Where mind and spirit protect each other in anticipation's darkness
Where sleeping rainbows not yet seen prepare their palettes
Where the light quietly waits to dawn the unknown

Tomorrow I Will Take a Walk Through Tonight

To remember the wind that carried the sweet fragrance of your smile
The dance of translucent thought and feeling upon my lips
The shadowlight that protected me from yesterday and remains with me tomorrow
