Banshee Boy
I struggled to keep you safe
in this world
but I am here for you
and tho these lines sound like platitudes
they are tried by time
and
whilst time is not real
the distance is
and
we travelled hand in hand
and flew
thru each golden moment
and ran
like wolves hunting the light
and in the night knew
no distance in dream.
The world has struggled with
such safety as love
and knows loss
as we do
and knows beauty
as we do
spinning circular motions
around back to this
encompassed;
We howl, we shriek and
find target
destination
destiny;
We slip thru shadows
and
beam bright:
To be better people,
for the wild!
We sing as we leap
from danger
free.
We smile our wiles
and we weep when we want.
We hug fast and linger
in full trust
drink the tears & lick the wounds
then laugh, and love,
and take up swords.
The world dances with us
and
each moment is ours
(no weapons on the table)
only the best sustenance
lelly lue, We thrive.
Separate I struggle to be
safe
who licks your wounds, drinks
your tears, puts the bones
and twigs in your food?
Who dances with you now
and
how do you sing without me?
my voice is hollow alone,
a sorrow song lacking
melody and echo of that
universal sympathy
just me, a few notes,
and the sky changing above...
Be safe in your castle, my love,
mellifluous I await
and hunt.
The world still dances with me
and shows
what we both know
and
the distance grows
the perspective shifts
and no doubt you've gotten taller
strong branch, Sun Heart
I've gotten smaller
not fading but
changing.
I remember, again.
My thoughts slice chains.
The hunt is long
the song lives on
breaking silences
like our words whispered
all ways
woven true with you
this strife may never sunder
in the rhythms we made
a new door opened
but the fate of my youth
must be met
the debts to our blood paid
the world returned to the way.
This was not meant to be
but is
and now
she bathes you in the love
I cannot hold you in,
sunshine gilden, love, and
kisses your face with rain,
and sings lullabys via the
birds and wind
is there for you when
I am not
tho long to be.
Love knows not the distance of divide.
