Trying to catch you off guard... Saturday, December 19, 2009

Can you remember when last you felt free,

Can you recall those times when you danced with gay abandon,

Does the memory of a passionate love still linger

Or has it never faded

And can you promise to return to it again

And meet me at the crossroads in the bargain?

 

When I think of you all my centres come to life

And I’m so grateful you’d think I was the one

Who’d been chosen to open up your heart

And render you undone.

 

I’m not sure just where you’ve come from

Nor do I care too much for sure,

But the truth remains that the best of games

Are the ones where the heart’s involved

So please join in the twirl.

 

You already know what must be done

And yet you continue to resist

What meaning does this have for you

As you find a way to exist?

Don’t get me wrong my sweet beloved

There’s no shortcut offered here,

It’s full on around the clock

You’ll have to shift to a higher gear.

 

If your apparition were before me now

I’d reach out with my heart through my warm embrace

And you’d wonder how

You ever gave up on all of this

Knowing it’s the only place.

The warmth and devotion I feel for you

Fly freely beyond the word

So I offer to share it through my gentle touch

And a smile that can melt the most absurd.

 

Another thing that I must describe

Is the beauty of your soul

That returns to me as soon as I utter your name,

Comes back in a flash to unite us again.

 

If you know who you are then get on with it in haste

Same goes for the others

Who are still lost in the chase.

But I always know you the moment you arrive

Like a heroine from an old time movie

So captivating and alive.

 

To be in touch with who you really are

Is a blessing magnifique

And from this point of no return

You enter the mystique

Of absolute responsibility

No time no space of which to speak

Only the connection from the infinite to the Divine

Leading to the takeoff that’s both yours and mine.

 

So outrageously in love with who you are...
