I Dreamt Last Night of a Feeling

I dreamt
Last night
Of a Feeling
I dreamt  
Last night
Of a Meeting
          Between you and I

It was comforting
Yet
I was cautious
          'Why are you here?
          You hate me'  

'I need to speak with you'
          'I'm busy' 
'I'll wait'
          I considered…
          'Alright' I nodded consent

You leaned in
          To slip me some skin
                    I thought
I felt your hand slide across 
                   Wrap naturally
                   Matter of factly 
                   Around mine

I felt it mostly 
Firmly
Gently
Along with 
          Your Heart
                 Open
                 Willing
          Secure in a Knowing
                 Of some sort

You waited patiently
          Held my hand Boldly
Until I woke


Why?

Why would I dream such a dream?
          As though our swords had never crossed
          As though our words 
                         Had not struck their final blow
          As though banishment wasn't so    
          And you had been searching
                         Instead
               To find me here
               In this dreaming
               In this feeling
                        Somewhere between
                        Space and time
              Waiting to align
              Myself with you

Perhaps...

Perhaps 
In this dreaming
I encountered Healing
Where hate was Love
And your kindness was mine


Wishing peace in the release of denials and silenced emotions.  If we free ourselves from the pain of judgement and Open to our own Way,  perhaps we might finally find Forever.

I remain,

Beneath the Sway


Sounds of Emotion 
Wave in the sea
Swaying gently far in the centre of movement
Below the stormy sky
The current is strong
Beneath the soft surface


I contemplate
At the sea's rocky shore
Sandy
Wet from Sky's sweat
From Earth's toil
Spent
Empty
They are tired


I am tired


Errors of the past
Mistakes fell fast
Beyond my grasp
Of reckoning

How can I be the Healer
As I am in healing?
I may bend time
Yet cannot undo
The done
The wrong

They say there is a hell
I say it is this:
The wound of Regret 
Festers longer
Than any hell
That  exists



All those bones beneath the sway
Got carried away
Their Joy
A thing of the past

With thoughts of goodbye
My friends,
Did you sigh?
When reckoning
Arrived at last



With the energy currently circling the World, Our World, it might be time to sit and Feel.  We are Masters of each Moment until we choose to be a slave of moments past, ways of being that no longer serve our Voice of Love, who we are.  May the days ahead bring Joy, Reconciliation and stories of Humanity's true Spirit of Kindness...Love.


I remain, ever hopeful of a future where all our tears are seen,

The Walk


It’s been several moons since Ocean Hawk took me to the Witch-Woman of the forest

The Witch-Woman...she was tall, confident and imposing
She had taken a look at my breast and concluded
     The skin around my areola had worn away
     Was easily agitated
          Gave me cream to ease discomfort

There was no discomfort

Just an aesthetic issue
     One breast visibly changed for always
          So shall it be
Should someone behead me
Identification can be made with a quick review of my chest


The walk has been long since my desert time

Eros is heading back towards me
  Carrying papers, formalities
               Written not with the glow of his golden arrow
But with the stench of blood
Long decayed in battle

Ocean Hawk remains my company
She is Kind
  Gentle
  Pure of Heart
She allows me space to grieve
My loss of Eros
Loss of the romantic notion
That Love conquers All
She is allowing my Trust to grow

Lately
Lately my dreams have been infiltrated by two
          Aries
          Eden

  Sex from men
Love from Women

I've since been wondering
     What do lesbians dream of?
          Do gay men ever dream of fucking women?
               Do straight men dream of fucking men?
Or
Is it a bi-sexual thing?
A reincarnation thing?
Or simply
          Is it a Lesley thing?

I don’t think there’s a right or wrong way to Being who We are

Isn’t Love just Love when it's all said and done?
When all our faces are removed
When all our stories have been told
Won't that be what remains of who we were?
Won't that be what we want others to remember most?

Each step I take
I feel the pebbles beneath my feet
The dust gets past my leather somehow and forms a skin beneath
  The mud
The mud ruins everything
Until I reach the Ocean

I’m headed there now
Ocean Hawk remains at my side
                I wonder at times
                         How long she'll stay


I remain,

Ever grateful for Movement, Love, and Humanity's true spirit - Goodness; and You, my Heartists and Warriors of Love, Humanity is You - it is Us,
