Butterfly effectYour aura glistens,
with an ethereal light
oozing love, which I imbibe.

who express deep gratitude,
as love seeds so pollinate....

Hold my handMy life has gone by
in hesitancy and doubt
but I’m joyful when you’re near.

searching for two missing kids,
who did not get off the bus !
Found them on the floor,

quenches not thirst of my soul,
that seeks only your embrace.

One lightI seek an echo
of pure love, not lust, that seeks,
the entwinement of our hearts.

whose sublime light’s reflected,
in your heart mirrored in mine....

heart’s insentient to love,
so my soul lives in the dark.

relinquishing thought flow crutch,
feel God’s grace within by touch....

Sedoka of the Albigensian SongWill of Tudela
Whose zeal burned for the white wolves
Against Languedoc's black lambs
Nameless soul of gold
Guided by heaven's muses
Pitied the southern pastures
Poem inspired by The Song of the Albigensian Crusade, a medieval epic...

thus my love is platonic.
I know not concepts,
being uneducated,
so I live and die for you....

in as unconditional,
oblivious to my flaws?

until you posed this question,
which caused my heart to contract....

and the vast void too conspires,
