I embrace myself
With the memory
Of your presence
With the memory

Glorious Fail
Enthralled by failing sun
Or so some poets have defined
As if a star could somehow falter
In none but cataclysmic time
Or so some poets have defined
As if a star could somehow falter
In none but cataclysmic time
Composed in peace at daylight’s end
And with this thought remind
That failure rarely renders
With such glorious design
The Calling
The beacon calls for them
Those who seek the shore
Those who yearn for the sea
Those who seek the shore
Those who yearn for the sea
Cloudy, Cloudy Day
Cloudy, cloudy day
Paint your palette blue and grey
Look out on a winter’s day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Horizon’s changing hue
Power in the waves come due
Dashing on the shore that’s you
In aqua on the broken rocky land
Paint your palette blue and grey
Look out on a winter’s day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Horizon’s changing hue
Power in the waves come due
Dashing on the shore that’s you
In aqua on the broken rocky land
Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
And how you suffered for your father’s deeds
And why you’d need to set me free
I would not listen, I did not know how
Perhaps I’ll listen now
Black & Blue
Broken blackened rock
Storm season surge sunders shore
Azure calm breaks through
Storm season surge sunders shore
Azure calm breaks through
Buffeted
Islands in the sky
Buffeted by the winds as
The sea upon the rocks
Buffeted by the winds as
The sea upon the rocks
And I in the storm
Enthralled by the beauty of
Violent nature
Moved to pondering
The nature of violence
Buffeting within
Rolling onto Shore
The swells roll in
An ever presence
Like you my friend
Always there to come to me
Even when I turn away
An ever presence
Like you my friend
Always there to come to me
Even when I turn away
Perhaps I am your shore
The solid ground
You’ll always find
Always there to welcome you
Even if I’ve turned away
