(2014)
Autumn sneaks in preceding dormancy Leaves take on new beauty with nothing left in them but a fa… Individually insignificant
The pen must be mightier than the sword For there is nothing that will spill your guts faster than a bit of ink that says
I was like a rain cloud over a small garden and dammit if you weren’t that garden so full of flowers that I fell in love
I’ll keep searching for the meaning of life and I hope I find it as crumpled paper nearish a trash can
To put it simply each beat of your heart is a gift that I receive with the anticipation of a child at christmas
I grew up in a house built in 1937 long before codes and regulations and sometimes
Under the weight of life I forget how to breathe and I feel suffocated I hesitantly make peace with the world
If nature were so flattered by poems written with itself in mind as people are we would be moving mountains
I hope this is postmarked before my death certificate is dat… but you’ll know why if it is or if it isn’t If you get this in time
The road is long and winding like nothing you can imagine Too many off ramps to count but too few in hindsight
I spend my nights wishing on every star in the sky that you are alive and well
Everyday brings a new death in three words give or take Some days I drown
Everyday I visit the only writers block I know to hone my words and wit and help them cut deeper into the skin
I would write a sweet poem and title it with your name if I loved you at all
The hands of this watch haven’t moved since the last time you did and I’m not sure if I’m ready to hear the ticking
