Again

I feel your kiss

I savor your touch

I see your smile

I hear your voice

I taste your love

And then

I crave you

All over again

Second-Hand


He sent through a poem 

Better than I could ever write 

About smiles and kisses 

Butterflies and wings

Peace and dreams 

Flying me to lands of love

The words I hungered to hear

The words I ached to feel

And then I saw

The lines were old 

They were written not

For me, they were presented

Second-hand

What should you do?

When your lover sends you a selfie. But gets it all wrong. And sends you a selfie of her instead. Unbuttoned.

Cutting Cords


Cutting the cords that bind

Cutting myself free

Cutting the magic moments

Our history 

Nothing is left 

The betrayal is too great 

I love you 

But it will never be

Splintered

Waiting

For a payoff that will never happen

For the jackpot that will never strike

For the love that will never be felt 

For the friendship to be whole 

When it is, and was always 

Splintered

Please Rather

A kinder option

Would simply be 

To pluck my heart 

Right out my chest 

Dice with a knife

Leaving a pool of 

Warm gushing red 

It will hurt far less 

Fish in Seas

Two of everything I would save
Birds and bees and snakes in trees
Bugs and lizards and chimpanzees
Bunnies and cats and kangaroos
Dogs and bats and fish in seas
Flowers and leaves and greenery
As proof of everything that we see

Out of Dust

Out of dust

Beauty arises

Flashing color

Full of glamour

Rising sun

Watching moon

Tomorrow –

More dust.
