The Journey's End

These wayfarer flavors of lust and love
that trickle sun dust upon rising tides
as the moon pulls me towards its center
in the puddles of the driving rain of change

I seek the first laughter of a young boy
the sweet sauce of parted thighs
the soulful sound of prison blues
the freedom of an ocean wind
and the promise of love
still waiting for me
to answer its
call

I dress her in my dream
fine silks and lace
she comes to me with a smile
I take her on the journey
only my ship can provide

In the aftermath of the hip dance
she holds me close and smiles
I am at my best when she
is satisfied

I wait for the day when
love alas wears one name

my heart sings the same old song
as I question why I fear the plunge

One day soon I will go to her
I can feel love rising in my soul

then, as the thunder claps to rain
I will tilt a smile towards the sun

I will dance upon the mountain
of a long journey up a giving path

I will settle in to one love in peace
when love alas it wears one name
