(2013)
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 thought I could drink you away but I had to stop being so drunk on you first
I wish you had told me that on the good days kissing you would make me think that I knew what happiness was and on the bad days
Autumn sneaks in preceding dormancy Leaves take on new beauty with nothing left in them but a fa… Individually insignificant
I awoke from a deep sleep and knew the reason was to write I love you
I have whispered your name into the air so many times it has become the breeze that blows
I get my silence in five minute doses before the plane overhead brings me back to earth
Loving you was never sweet like the taste of vanilla the way I thought it was supposed to be It was more like
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
I say hello and you say nothing You may hear me you may even think of a response

I spend my nights wishing on every star in the sky that you are alive and well
Passion doesn’t arise from 12 point Times New Roman but rather from ink on one page and another
I’ve always been at the very least a little caught up on everything about you This idea of you
Everyday brings a new death in three words give or take Some days I drown
