(2014)
It must be a wednesday or a friday or any day at all for I am painfully aware of the wo… that consumes me
I awoke in the dark next to you and more alone than ever I was amazed to hear your heart beating from
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 don’t remember any anesthesia after talking with you but I woke up stitched back
There seems to be a drought in my… but who knows if it is the cause or the result of the war raging within me
Loving you was never sweet like the taste of vanilla the way I thought it was supposed to be It was more like
I get my silence in five minute doses before the plane overhead brings me back to earth
There is a girl and I love her and I have loved her since the beg… Or so it seems to me as I only became conscious
I thought I could drink you away but I had to stop being so drunk on you first
Everyone sees god in a different light but I was born without eyes
All that I know how to do is write about death without dying and write about life
Passion doesn’t arise from 12 point Times New Roman but rather from ink on one page and another
I say hello and you say nothing You may hear me you may even think of a response
There is poetry in nature better left to be spoken wordlessly by the breeze
I wrote this while thinking of you so I guess you could say this poem is eight years in the making
