tears
are the ink
for the pen
a poet uses
to write
- L.M.

distance, lost among the pages
two different people
two different places
left behind, dog eared fragments
sometimes i think it’s ok
to judge a street by its pavement
You've given me tons of reasons to leave,
But I still stay
Because those reasons weren't enough
To keep me away
the scent of a rose
the light of a sun
the glowing from a moon
the dust from a star
the tablecloth on your table
the tree's roots cutting into the earth
a world behind a window
the rain sounding from comfort
sea salt spraying coarse sand
an aesthetic
what a bore
Poetry is a world.
Enlightened people
Are its dwellers.
Not all dwellers are poets
