Senryu
If patience prevails,
with love and understanding
A broken heart heals

Senryu
A scared trembling heart
nervously waiting for love
to come to the door

Colors of the Heart
Colors of the Heart
Purple has become
the new color of my heart
Once red with passion
now bruised with your blues
A splattered abstract art
The combination of colors
is resulting in a different hue
The mix is not compatible
and a coalescence will not form
into a heart that will remain true
A perfect blending of shades
would bring harmony to the soul
Balancing the energy
Repairing the heart
Before it becomes as black as coal

Even though apart
I know when you think of me
My heart skips a beat

In the dark silence
I can hear your heart beating
In sync with my own

The day of romance
A heart pierced with an arrow
Love everlasting

Senryu
As we sit quietly
In the flickering firelight
I hear your heartbeat

My heart aches for you
Wishing you had never left
Please come back to me

Departed
Departed
I harvest the remnants
of our life once complete
Limiting the time I spend
Reminiscing
As my heart now deplete
My eyes look around
the spartan room
Your things gone
and furniture removed
A feeling of empty gloom
My eyes drawn to the window
Afternoon sun bathing the glade
In a matinee performance
of fantastic color and light
A silent serenade
Missing you, still loving you
Feeling you here
Where life used to exemplify
our love and intimacy
Now fated to disappear

Recovery
Recovery
My capacious heart
Full of affection
Secretes slowly
The love you need
Like an intravenous injection
Your wounded soul
Beaten and bruised
Crying to be nurtured
And healed
No longer misused
Let me nourish
Your spirit and mind
With milk and honey
Infuse them with strength
Until once more entwined
