cycles complete
---------------

happy birthday,
  lover gone
    but not forgetten

your piscean
  schitzophrenia
  is sensible
    when these cycles
    are absorbed
      complete

i know you are lost somewhere
  in elysian fields of faith
    dandelion fluff
      blowing where ever the wind
        may take you

and i know now
  that there is no capturing
    sea foam
  and fairy dust is not a mere spice
    but rather
      a key to life eternal

your brush caressed
  my form
    when you immortalized 
    my image on 
      canvas
    and i could feel each bristle
      run like tears
        across my skin
      a rain of love droplets
        and our soft conversation
        explaining the motion of 
          those pearls

unwise communion
anguished seperation
and our headlong free fall
thrown by the explosion
of our relationship
  where are you now, lover?
    i am very far away and lost
    i hope you fared better

    happy birthday, whereever you are.
