My Life

 

My feet

as they reach for the dance

of the dawn of an Earth

that they know

 

My heart

as it tells where the dancer

may go

 

My thumb

on the string as a drum

and a pulse of the song

on my tongue

 

My voice

on the wind

in the tales I have sung

 

My eyes

in the face of a lie

 

in the face of a lie

that someday

may see you

 

My teeth

in the jaws of a truth

 

in the jaws of a truth

that someday

may free you

 

My toes

as they stretch in the sand

of a shore in the heat

of a sun

 

My legs

as they ache

in their desperate run

 

My lips

as they burn with the thought

of a kiss to explore

what can be

 

My dreams

as they tug at the chains

to see

 

silences come alive

in sentences spawned by fire

in books that then may be

doors that then may be

eyes that then may be

life

 

My tear

as it furrows a course

for a trace of a vestige

of smile

 

My sigh

as it captures the air

for a while

 

My birth

as it wonders at why

would the gate between lives

be so dark

 

My death

as it ventures again

to embark

 

My soul

as it travels again

 

and again and again

through heavenly

pastures

 

My self

as I travel again

 

and again and again

my soul ever

after
