…A book and it’s cover
As the day closes its eyes
And night rules the skies
To dream of you
And write to you
Of every thought to arise
As I turn this page tonight
Awoken by the light
To think of you
And call to you
A dream far from sight
Each word a thought in ink
An image, a link
To find the thought
Now begot
A chapter on the brink
As night skies return
Words to decern
To read each line
So defined
Another page to turn

..just you and me
Having wrote many times
Of the intricacies of Love
Dare not pretend to understand
The complexities whereof
As on a wave in the sea
Sometimes we can feel
Horizon out of sight
On the precipice of an uneven keel
When the storm ebbs
And a cool breeze takes the helm
A reflection in still water
Our image now overwhelms
On this journey with you
No other place would I be
But on the open sea of life
Just you and me

…To My Ani, My Love, My World
Communication, always a task for me
What I mean to say
Often kept within
Till the words emerge some other day
If I allow words to flow at will
Often they are a jumbled mess
The story of most my life
An impediment I must confess
Till the day I met you
Something beautiful this way came
A soul defiant of social convention
True beauty are you one in the same
Forever humbled am I
In the presence of you each day
My soul resurrected
The only edict I could obey
As if I’v known you
All my life
If given just one wish..
That you would be my wife
For the rest of my life

…to love
You stir feelings
I only thought I knew
Desires seeded deep within
Only stronger do they grow
To be there with you
I would not be able to speak
Within Your beauty
My words now lost deep
Each petal calls to me
Intoxicated am I
By the aroma, the nectar
To stand I would not try
To be here at this moment
Times hands have stood still
Pulled into loves embrace
Forever sealed by loves will
To Love You
Ani

…story with no end
How many times have you seen a painting of a rose
How many times left to discover
Yet each brush stroke
Each color and hue on the canvas
Paints a picture like no other
How many times can I write of you my love
How many times, I care not
Every time you gave your heart to me
Every smile with forgiveness
Moments in time never forgot
Yes I’ll write my words of love to you
Till the night becomes the day
And the day becomes night again
Forever this infinitude
Forever will I say
I love you Ani

…this day
When I was much younger
I lived for tomorrow
Always looking in the past
For memories to borrow
Each day would pass
Leaving memories behind
Tomorrow another day
A future yet to find
As days became weeks
Then months into years
One dream still eludes
Left alone with my fears
Then we met one day
Though my tooth a bit long
In awe did I watch her
Sway with such grace to a song
Forever now do I live
Not for tomorrow nor yesterday
But in the magical realm
With her on this day
giancasey.words ©
…The one your with
I have no delusion
Nor confusion
Of our love
Age does certainly
Create uncertainty thereof
I need no confirmation
Nor explanation
For our love
Only the exhilaration
I feel hereof
I care not of insinuation
Nor any implication
Of our love
Age is only relative
Boundless is true Love

…beauty
You are beauty, as
Roses bow to you
Birds sing with you
The sun shines on you
To illuminate your beauty
You beauty is reflected in the glow of the Moon
Why I howl to you every night
And raise my eyes
to such a beautiful sight…
As you
My Love
The Love of my Life

I leave it up to you..
I saw a picture today
I don’t recognize
Through I still feel young
Just now realized
What may you think
Of this weathered old man
When we bare our souls
To each other
Is hard to understand
There are times I fear
I am holding you back
Though you reassure me so often
Of confidence so lacked
A hindrance to you
The sum of my fears
To cause you regret
Later in your years
I feel selfish, Ashamed
To need you as I do
At the cost of your youth
Would my fears come true
I don’t know what to do
Even more what to say
I leave it up to you..
And our Love to guide the way
giancasey.words
…just a picture on the wall
I vaguely remember
The year of that day
Familiar though it seems
As recognition fades away
Worn eyes stare back
From every angle seen
As if to say something
Just say anything
A thousand words
If only just one
But silence augurs
Regret now begun
Yes I remember the person
In that picture on the wall
A reflection never lies
To the image of us all
giancaseywords ©
Silence…
Asway with the wind
Only the flow of the quiet
Mighty, she stands
To all is defiant
At rest while we shiver
Her soul lies deep
In the warmth of the arms
Of the roots of her keep
Rings hold the memories
Long before written word
Time so recorded
Yet a word to be heard
At harmony with each note
Each measure of each beat
Her silence pure music
My life now replete
I sit here on this glen
Tall grass all around
Light slowly fading
In awe of the sound…
Of silence
Just one love to me
giancasey.words
…to feel you
To feel you in my soul
Not a day has passed
To feel you in my heart
Not a beat has lapsed
To feel you when I breathe
A deep breath must I take
To feel you in the morn
Just as I wake
To feel your touch
For just one day
In this dream with you
Forever would I stay
To feel it seems
A warmth that surrounds
The deepest of Love
A feeling with no bounds
Giancasey.words ©
…just a thought
Patience is a virtue
Not sure what that means
Patience is a tool
The outcome do you deem
A risk is not a risk
While you have control
A laugh just a laugh
Read not from a troll
I hid any doubt
Confess, to you I do
Took years to reveal
All my cards I now show to you
To be perfect just a lie
To be yourself you can’t deny
To change your mind. Yes you can
To change your course, another plan
To speak your voice, is only your choice
A voice together, is the voice of choice
And no others
Just a thought of Love to my daughters…
giancasey.words ©
…an ocean apart
I feel you
In every beat of my heart
Every second we’re apart
In each breath I take
The moment I wake
I need you
As you give me meaning
You are never fleeting
You fulfill me every day
Forever will I stay
I long for you
As I wait for your call
Anticipation et al
Then a breath I can take
No longer to ache
I’m here for you
Till the day meets night
Will never loose sight
Though an ocean apart
I’m here for you
As you flow thru my heart
Your the blood in my veins
The air in my breath
The beat in my heart
You are a part
Of me
My Love
giancasey.words ©
…Thru the fog
My life sometimes
Spend alone in the dark
Looking for anything
A hint of a spark
What seems tangible
Soon turns into mist
From my hands it slips
Left an empty clinched fist
Without hesitation
I would have charged thru this abyss
What forces become me now
Seems my strength is amiss
To navigate this sea
With no stars nor light
Lost forever in this fog
In this cold on this night
A faint glow thru the fog
I see in this gray
A muffled voice I hear
Be calm does she say
Why she returns
Im sure you all can see
But I lack that part of understanding
Why it’s difficult for me
Forever I go off course
Only to return to this fog
Forever do I write
These words in this log
Should she tire of this stress
Myself left only to blame
Then alone forever
In the dark in the rain
I can only try
I can only trust her Love
I have nothing else
She is the moon far above
That guides me
giancasey.words ©
If only…
How do I tell her
I’m empty without her
How do I explain
From emptiness I came
How do I show her
The love I have for her
When I cause her such pain
When I explain but in vain
Why I’m this way
Is hard to explain
Why trust eludes
Lost deep in my brain
Why I ask why
For so many years
Hoping one day
An answer appears
She gave herself to me
So unconditionally
Relentless she stays
Such a Love that never sways
If only I could tell her
I’m empty with out her
If only I could explain
My love will never wane
If only…
Giancasey.words ©
To be…
Her child
Her only care
Her world
Let no one dare
Come between
The Love of three
A mothers love
A sight to see
The Only Love
Meant to be
The only bond
No man can see
A Mother’s love
Does a child hold tight
The only love
Meant forever every night
She gives with no end
A life with one goal
To give to her child
The world
giancasey.words ©
..I wish I had told you
I wish I had told you
You have beautiful eyes
Beacons in the night
The allure of fireflies
I wish I had told you
I can’t look away
You are the glow of the moon
Lighting my way
I wish I had told you
How I’m moved as you speak
I wish I could tell you
That my knees become weak
Let me now tell you
I think we should talk
Maybe an email a message
Or on a trail as we walk
I wish you would tell me
This minute on this day
You feel as I do
Then here I will stay
In the words that we say
To eachother
giancaey.words ©
…I give you
Should I tell you I love you
On this September day
Should I wait another second
Or find another way
Should I tell you I love you
As the hand has moved again
Another second another minute
Another hour with no end
Should I tell you now
Is the time right to say
Should I wait
Should I wait
I can’t wait another day
Happiness, you give
You make my life whole
Forever in debt
I give you my heart and soul
