Wisping winds dance overhead and a distant sound entices those fit for the journey.
I'm a step behind and I've no desire to pull you back,
I'm just a little jealous of all the beauty I can see where you step.
I don't want to wake you,
oh no, quit the opposite -
my spirit burns to be with you,
there,
active but still,
hazy but real."
- Nicholas Doyle, 2009
"Blend.
Memories?
Yes, from the future they linger over your being like taunting screaming spirits.
But their wail fucking pleasant cuts through your peripheral and you
sit
stand
jump
into the breath of each blasted being.
Let their warmth
embrace
splinter
all hint of pessimism
and your eyes will glow like they were meant to by some omniscient being,
be that a holy or unholy god."
- Alex Brown, 2009
"Even in my dreaming state I sense you.
"Even in my dreaming state I sense you.
Always just beyond sight, but I know you are there.
Your presence is unmistakable, and so I call out to you.
Will you not answer so that I know you are there?
You were here with me once before, and yet I turned to find you gone.
Reality is blurred, and I wonder if you were ever really there.
Walk with me for a while and share with me these experiences that you crave.
Beauty such as this was meant to be seen by two kindred spirits.
Take in the sweet perfume that intoxicates your every fiber of being.
The scent lingers with you until it's all that remains.
Slowly the sun rises, and my eyes flutter open, trying to adjust.
In my half awakened state I search the room, but you are not there.
Smiling, I close my eyes and lay back down upon my pillow.
I know where you are waiting."
- Andrea Senter, 2009
