**You Were There

To be More
is everything
you're hungry for
Only your touch on this
moment is too fleeting
to generate anything but
leftover memories of a tradition
A collision of time revealing
in a blur of headlights
what you'd written on the
windowpane once
"I was here"
So be here
with me
then

**Who's Responsible For This?

I should be afraid
Of what blossoms in the
shadow of a world where
fear is a piano forte we've
all learnt to play
The self righteous
crack of gunfire muzzling
the grim sound of glass
crumbling into the
grave dust staining our
hands with the blood
of innocents
And I am
Aren't you?

It's March
Taken 3 months
But
I'm all about the business of words.

No longer
discombobulated
I'm
Feeling whole again and ready.

Called out
I swear I've changed
Cried
and tried to see the patterns of behavior

#history is but a
corridor of echoes
reverberating
with the footsteps
of our predecessors,
walking in a different time,
but to

the same,

essential

beat.

A little boy
in an elfin pinnace
was shown
Nature's dark door
— a door that opened
on her blacker hidden heart.

Though she lulls
and soothes,
don't turn towards her,
for one moment,
a complacent eye...

#atreyasverse

lyrics that rain
as your guitar
gently weeps...

#atreyasverse

sturdy boughs
of stillness,
branch outwards from
the shared trunk
of contedness

an oaken love
watered by Time's rain,
nourished by the sunshine of
of our shared
experiences

gnarled fingers
intertwine like brittle twigs,
fragile,
yet still reaching
for the stars

#atreyasverse

thunder
shouts of desire
electric passion
🌩️ has riven
our charged sky
the moment is
scintillating

but
just
as quickly
as it arrives,
it dies —
we die
— in
each
other's
arms
