I arise from my field of wishes
stillness caught
in the absence of a breeze
where dandelion seeds forget how to fly
I've been dazed half a lifetime
and now, in my hands
I hold every desire
to be outside time, immersed in love
yet the world stands still
words fail, wants curtailed -
I kneel, entranced by proximity
devastated by distance
such closeness to a dream
~ a death in itself ~
I am without reflection
without air in my lungs
dormant, breathless
aware of the lack of y o u
conscious, a spiralling wind
can whip away
this one wish -
you, within arms reach
holding my gaze
bringing about feeling
oh dandelion deliver
the softest kiss
I wish, I pray, I reminisce
there's nothing else I need
but this
