We only collide in mesmerizing daydreams
things have never been as they seem
presence felt so tangible
across distant horizons
touching souls only in the throes of musing dreams
Therein lies an abstruse distance to destiny
exiled by clairvoyant sheltering walls
shielded within a hidden untouchable safe haven
imprisoned comfortably confined within
Once exploring vast winding river’s shoreline
tiptoes taste at the shallow waters’ edge
"Close your eyes" .., float afar where ferral currents beckon
waft away in moonstruck daydream’s trance
Only in sumptuously lucid night dreams
we crash stark-naked into a sea of sublimity
plunging into an alluring metaphysical
abysm
into the secret titanic depths azure oceans bathe
Plummeting from the edge a utopian threshold
sway aneath restless swollen waves touch
unraveling passion’s
prevailing tidal maelstroms
that wellspring of cadence to
which I yearn to swim
Yet … I’ll drift away alone this restless sky full of stars
fly by night through star dust showered cosmos scenes
crash into naked stars’ luminescent splendor
imbibe a spellbinding elixir yellow moon serene
Only in dreams before morning dewdrops gather
impearled flesh glistens on the cotton beach of dawn
awakening sighs replace the warm enraptured whispers
the touch our sensual asylum betides
Splendidly improbable entrancing reverie
inspire indefinable enchanting realms
awakening to another lonesome daybreak’s
outgoing tide of broken beautiful dreams
