❤ ❤ I’m back….here is a brain dump I need to get out of my journal. Love you ❤ ❤


Unnamed #1

why do we torture our minds with endless dreams?

the answer is the same for why we build sandcastles when instantaneous destruction is minutes away

why do we extend our arms upward reaching for hope?

because the opposite is the lack of sun


Unnamed #2

beneath somber sky

betwixt past lavender dreams

i stand so alone


Unnamed #3

i was afraid to dive across the mountain valley

in search of yellow staining

paint strokes

-home

i was afraid to wipe

the condensation of last weeks tears

dry

from the plastic windows at playtime

-regret

i was afraid to remember your

thumbprinted cookies and

geranium scented breasts

because i closed myself in a locket

lost at a flee market

-love
