Relearning the Shape of Me

by Liam 

When it’s the moon and stars I seek,

—I ask the night

to hold me in its sight.

I wander

fragile,

worn,

weak—

relearning my name,

learning how to see again.

I place a rose into your hand.

It’s not my thorns

that make you bleed.

It’s the way my gaze

unmasks what you had planned.

Because truth—

truth cuts sharper

than anything I ever meant to hide.

I trace my faults

in crooked lines,

insecurities carved into my mind.

Every misjudgment

steals a little more sight,

until—

bite by bite

I start losing

the one I was holding on inside.

I said I named my body.

I named my path.

I named you.

I said every choice was mine alone.

But freedom frays

where hearts betray,

and consequence—

consequence redraws us

whether we’re ready or not.

And still—

like dawn

melting midnight blue,

your love

revives my world.

Not by saving me—

but by showing me

the shape

I’d forgotten

was already true.

Solar Heart

by Liam

I’ve seen the quiet tremors of your gaze,

the way your pulse outshines the afternoon,

as if your breath were woven out of days,

that learned their language from a rising moon.

You speak, and dormant gardens break their sleep;

you move, and hidden continents shift their flow.

The world shuffles in, to listen to the deep

unfolding of a light it longs to know.

What secret spark first stirred this inner fire?

What cosmic gravity drew a flame to heart?

Your presence bends reality to desire,

A flame claims, love begins to start.

In your heart the sun is an exploding flame,

and the sky so blue 

will never be the same.

The Embrace 

by Liam

In a quiet moment, my love met me there,

The wine’s red stain upon her lips,

Her ruby lockets curl with graceful care,

Now deep into my eyes her gaze now slips.

Her embrace transforms my very face to hers,

So we touch not with bodies, but with sighs,

In that kiss, the world around us blurs,

And all we share is in our eyes.

My Love Rose

by Liam

I have whispered to a rose with petals red,

Within lies an image of your face concealed;

Each blossom a memory of the grace by which you thread,

The sweet perfume of your story thus revealed.

The bud in a bouquet, rough with thorns in place,

Yet you remain unharmed by their cruel art;

Reach I to free you from their sharp embrace,

With a gentle grasp, yet will I win your heart?

Place I now the rose, soft upon this pillow fair,

Where magic dwells and gentle dreams entwine;

Your presence scents the hush of starlit air,

And makes my mortal heart beat more like thine.

Oh red rose, whose beauty sings your name,

In you, my love finds pleasure and its flame.

by

The Thrum

by Liam

Just dream away, my beloved.

Let your mind’s wheel roll.

You have carried enough of thinking

those thoughts

that only shadow

the tender light of now.

Come closer to me.

Let the hush gather us in.

Ideas are too small

for the truth we share,

a truth that lives

in the excitement before a kiss,

in the glance that says 

“I see you”,

without a spoken word.

Beyond the riding moon,

I feel you, hear your joy, your singing voice,

a constellation shining into laughter.

You juggle dreams like yesterdays prayers,

offering them to the night

with hands that have known both silence and song.

And I

I am here,

dizzy in this profound stillness,

where even my breath feels sacred.

We move not with steps,

but with the soft thrum

of hearts entwined,

your rhythm beating

its gentle message o

against the door of my chest.

This is no dream.

This is the real deal,

Where we flow,

Where we glow,

And where all that remains is the thrum of it all.

Mystery of Love

by Liam 

I call not, yet love still finds me,

not like thunder, nor lightning,

but as a rising tide that knew my name

long before your lips had shaped it.

With no map in hand, nor lamp to lift,

no track to trace through maze or stone,

I wait in quiet, as days unfold—

and patience calls.

But love rewards—unbidden, watch—

green the ivy through an opening crack,

golden morn spilling amongst the hills,

when I thought not to see the sky.

Day cried.

Might I have sought, it surely fled,

like birds do before my reaching hand.

But love, unlooked for, is unbound,

finds the way, and finds me now.

Smiling.

Poem: You !

by Liam

On that evening, late.

As you walked through into my room.

Fascination grabbed me, your smile too.

A joy rang resonating in the key hole,

Where I lived.

My heart hiding in the cupboard.

A closet reserved for tears,

The draws, filled with crumpled memories.

Musty that place!

Rusty my movements.

It came again 

The vibration, unmistakable & strong….

Boy! 

I breathed deeply.

Glowing your radiation fixed me  to the picture.

The wall swayed with my breathing.

Permeated, I reached out

and grasped your hand.

The movement as you slipped into my arms.

I breathed you in, awash in perfume.

I beat you off with a hammering chest .

I brushed the fluff on your cheek.

I whispered in case,

Reality was but my phantasy.

“Hi”

Drawing back her eyes,

Murky crystals recognized 

My gaze 

A moment which…

Touched the me,

I’d yet grow to become.

“You’re beautiful”

 

She loosened her hand, tugging gently kissed me.

Invisible blood dripped from my love wounded lips.

Dissolving we both left those lovers.

Only a moment, 

In eternity we soared.

Only a second 

In infinity we sighed.

Smiled laughed and died.

Were resurrected to a  new born day.

It’s you, really is you!

A cry was heard, as only souls reuniting sing.

This is my meaning 

This is your feeling

This is why we ring.

On Love

by Liam

Love is not a fleeting feeling;

It is the wild, eternal pulse of being,

The secret lily that stirs the stars,

And whispers to the roots of the earth.

It carries the ache of our human heart,

Yet spills far beyond our individual stories,

A luminous striving force, both intimate and infinite,

Woven through all that breathes and becomes.

Love is the greatest alchemist,

Binding the fragments into wholeness,

Transforming wounds to thresholds we cross,

While stilling the restless ocean of the soul.

It is the river shaping the contours of my existence,

The tide rising toward my belonging,

Always forming, unfolding, creating 

A hymn sung in the language of becoming.

Yet love remains a mystery,

Vaster than our longing can fathom,

More generous than our grasp can hold.

It is, a truth too great for words,

Living in you, in me,

And in the unbroken oneness of us all.

On Love

by Liam

Love is also more than emotion,

The pulse within all that lives,

A flame to ignite the heart of being.

An oceanic breath, enfolding gives.

Love weaves the scattered into wholeness.

Heals the jagged edges of our days.

The silent architect of our becoming,

An unseen hand shaping all our ways.

It reveals itself in small gesture,

The courage found in forgiving shame,

The depth of a gaze where love compels you,

The warmth of touch that heals the pain.

Yet all we’ve named, all we’ve known of love,

Is but a glimpse of its infinite horizon.

All ever-present, ever-giving grace,

A mystery too great to be held by heaven.

Loves weaving, threads through time and space.

Poetry: Hearts Aflame 

by Liam

We, too, should ponder this being of light,

For our souls bare love in the quiet of this first night,

Here cosmic dust, touches the shimmer of distant stars,

Falls softly into the cradle of our being, filling it with joys.

Like those stars, whose brilliance stirs our wonder,

We, too, sparkle to become, 

To ascend through the wonder of growth.

Leaving the embers of our suffering, 

Scattered to the winds,

Sharing the brightness we now wear.

And in our kindled hearts, let’s set the world alight!
