Long pages aren't enough..
a sea full of blue ink aren't enough..
a novel of description about you aren't enough..
days and nights to spend with you , aren't enough..
my phone's storage to treasure our memories aren't enough..
my short life to live with you aren't just enough..
Just for you
Darkness needs no companion.
during winter months
trees are naked silhouettes
without their leaves

I am a moonchild
Turning colder every night,
Hiding my face,
little more these days
.

That's how many days
We've been one
Its hard to remember
When we were two
When did two equal one?
9855 days ago ...
or so
1995 two became one...

You have my permission to use your own number of days...the formula works for everyone
i sense the walls of sanity cracking
unseen
trying to hide in the foundation
trying to escape
but there is nowhere to run

we drive silent into the country
my Father and i rarely spoke
revealed our fears
our doubts
ourselves
but today i saw a frightened man
a man dealing with an enemy he couldn't control
'I worked hard my whole life. This is not fair'
he fought back tears
but i could not
my father passed away from the debilitating effects of alzheimer's
