(2014)
If nature were so flattered by poems written with itself in mind as people are we would be moving mountains
You asked what I knew about you and I thought up a list of twenty things
I know that you were there in my dreams and in my arms Every dream we
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
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
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
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
To put it simply each beat of your heart is a gift that I receive with the anticipation of a child at christmas
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
Under the weight of life I forget how to breathe and I feel suffocated I hesitantly make peace with the world
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 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
There is poetry in nature better left to be spoken wordlessly by the breeze
Hope in another form but no fewer letters and I’ve been hoping for these past eight years so I’ll just keep on
You were the wind beneath my wings but I was Icarus so all I did
