(2014)
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 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
I see words screaming for attention etched in the lines of your face Let me look closer
Life is an uphill struggle Nothing comes easy and only hard work pays off I don’t like hard work was my 5 word protest
I would write a sweet poem and title it with your name if I loved you at all
I awoke from a deep sleep and knew the reason was to write I love you
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
Everyone sees god in a different light but I was born without eyes
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 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
Everyday brings a new death in three words give or take Some days I drown
I grew up in a house built in 1937 long before codes and regulations and sometimes
If I was once the tallest mountain your love was the wind that eroded me to nothing
Hope in another form but no fewer letters and I’ve been hoping for these past eight years so I’ll just keep on
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
