Perfect Match

I always thought we were the perfect match.
But matches are meant
                                   to ignite
                                         and burn out.

The sky and the sea,
The stars and the trees,
The rain and the sweet melodies,
I love and cherish all these components
That give me sweet dreams and peace

Broken
 Nov 2018 JcA

To be human
is to be broken.
Shattered by life,
misunderstood.

We all have hopes
we don't dare name.
We all have dreams
we don't dare share.

Ninety-nine percent
we don't understand
our own selves.
And so often
we hide behind shells.

To be human
is to be broken.
So stand up tall
broken and all.

Be broken.
Accept it.
And accept others,
beautifully broken,
just as you.
Written 6 August 2018

Every human is broken, but you choose whether to live boldly broken or timidly broken.

when a heart broken
lover
pours out all
her feelings and
translates them onto
words. something
beautiful gets created.
appreciated by many but
never the one
she's always written her
heart out for.

I wonder if it's her,
because I know God works in mysterious ways.

I threw in the towel,
God threw it back
and said,
"Wipe your face,
you're almost there"

The mark has been set and ready they are to go no finish in mind the future isn’t theirs to know buried deep beneath the winters snow the earth endured with months to go until warmth allowed it to flourish and grow

Your Feet
 Oct 2018 JcA
Pablo Neruda
When I cannot look at your face
I look at your feet.
Your feet of arched bone,
your hard little feet.
I know that they support you,
and that your sweet weight
rises upon them.
Your waist and your *******,
the doubled purple
of your *******,
the sockets of your eyes
that have just flown away,
your wide fruit mouth,
your red tresses,
my little tower.
But I love your feet
only because they walked
upon the earth and upon
the wind and upon the waters,
until they found me.
