innocence – lost

un-created.

un-done.

unknown you.

unknown –

me.

separated long before our is – became was…

 

how different our –

each –

would be,

if allowed to roam

free – from tethers set in doubt.

 

unrestrained –

un-caged –

un-emcumbered.

carried along lost as dandelion seeds,

by the wind of what could be…

in dreams

 

to venture out past the breakers –

find that water – calm.

float with the tide toward dawn…

 

to feel the wind against my back.

let the current carry me away.

to greet the sunrise –

face to face.

no fear of retribution –

no remorse for nights demise…

 

to reach right out –

when one with the horizon –

touch the very face –

of God…

 

(in dreams i find the paradise

my waking mind can’t see.

my open eyes too used to darkness –

my heart too broken – to believe.)
