Take my toxic words
and turn them
into wine.

I think our love
a little bit saggy now
no dancing beneath the stars
no hanging in late night bars
more sunrise
than sunset
but still
I’m hanging with
you!

I used to think
that when life got old
it would somehow get vague
yet I see more clearly now
than when I was sixteen

I love the jagged edges
of you
they sometimes cut
but will always be
the best part
of you

I looked around at the green, lush foliage
Sitting on the same dune that the coastal forest seems to spew out
Thinking how familiar the shape of these trees and shrubbery is,
How in a full decade it all still looks the same

Yet the dune changes daily as the wind wills it
And the trees they stretch and wither according to the seasons

Yet never changing it seems

It’s time to move

I will miss the safety of familiarity,
But not the drain of it

How were you to know
this world
would so harsh
