Outside the Cave

Sometimes, a cave within your head
Will suck you in
And steal you from the world.
And even I can't get in
That door is magic
And shut to me.
But don't you worry,
Even if I cannot
Find a way through
To get my love to you,
When it opens, as it always does,
I will be waiting
Outside the cave,
With a warm jacket and warmer hug
And a candle, orange scented with love
And a flower and my sword
And a kiss you could only dream of,
And all the love in the world..

The Unknown

We cast off...
Surrender ourselves to the winds,
Hoping to find a way home
Or at least to safer shores
And, maybe, a storm will catch us,
And upset this flimsy raft...
But, maybe, that chance must be taken.

I hope I find you
When the wind dies down,
Rather than sleep in a watery grave,
Dead and unloved
For lack of you

And until that day,
When hope comes answered,
Look for me in the sea,
The wind will whisper you my love.
