(2014)
I see words screaming for attention etched in the lines of your face Let me look closer
Forever seems like so long until I think of all the times spent waiting
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
I awoke in the dark next to you and more alone than ever I was amazed to hear your heart beating from
I have whispered your name into the air so many times it has become the breeze that blows
There is something to be said of a true friend One who will pull the knife from your back One who will stitch the wounds
I feel empty unceasingly until you come along and fill my heart to bursting
Autumn sneaks in preceding dormancy Leaves take on new beauty with nothing left in them but a fa… Individually insignificant
The road is long and winding like nothing you can imagine Too many off ramps to count but too few in hindsight
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 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’ve always been at the very least a little caught up on everything about you This idea of you
Just when I get back on my feet you pass on by and I lose my footing Again
I wrote this while thinking of you so I guess you could say this poem is eight years in the making
Hope in another form but no fewer letters and I’ve been hoping for these past eight years so I’ll just keep on
