Untitled II

I am at the age
Where life is easiest in dreams.
Not because they are fantasy
But they are the only place
Where I don’t get in my own way.

Untitled I

You are with me here as I write
Each line is touched by you
I count syllables for you sometimes.
I’ve tried many times to send you out of the room
To wall off this childish game and make you wait
To explain that this is something I do to flatter myself
That it has no worth and you would not read it

My Lover is a Ghost

The love lost and buried
Who now lies next to me.
I didn’t save everything.
Not your dresses
Or your shoes.
Just your smell

It is almost like a prayer.
The love of the hospital bed
The feeling of dread
Knowing that relief is release
And what you would say.

Living In Decay

Drowning in whatever we’re floating in.
Breathing too, in your arms, for a moment.
While they will hold me, in permanent respite
Only to be forgotten and discarded
As weightless as a young memory.
So close that the version I told you
Becomes a blurry-eyed eye witness
Assigning guilt while sand slips…
