You shine so bright
         Only if you knew it
           Then the whole world
             Would never go dark.
Would you shine for me?

I'm not hurt
Because of what you did

I'm hurt
Because you didn't tell me
(this note was written by an air conditioner outside in the cold park where there's a kid who refuses to wear mittens)

he told me his sister tried to die,
and i sat there, silent,
holding my own secret like a stone
in my throat,
wishing i could tell him
but terrified he’d hate me for it.

The air is fresh
The sky is clear
The birds are singing
The smell is pure
Something I found in an old journal... I just needed it today

With a thrill, some creature glides past,
Soon stills the heart, discernment at last.
Only a brief flutter on shaded-out wings
Quickly glimmered in the evening breeze.  
It was only a shadow.  So why would I care?
This time of day no shadows should be there.

To see someone live the life I wanted with you,
giving each other the word for eternity

I will crumble to my feet
and drag the possibility of us with me.

I see glowing aquamarine in your eyes,
endless waters passing by,
yet you don’t notice the earth collapsing in mine,
coffee growing stronger each time we aline,

and each time we don’t,
I hate waiting for a sign.
