Your smile has become
more inviting
than the graves of those I once
loved.

Smooth down the next clean page
As you bid this chapter farewell.
The story of life isn't easy to write,
But there's still so much left to tell.

So, take a breath for composure,
And spend every moment this year
Creating a tale to leave readers in awe
And your grandkids bored-to-tears.
Happy New Year! Huge thank you to everyone who has taken the time to read any of the stuff that I've made over the last year.

He cried like rain
And screamed like thunder

And I

I was a quiet river deafened by his storms

Virtuous
I took the crown off my head
To make myself more approachable
To you
And in doing so
Forgot that I ever owned one
Never lower your standards for anyone

We are as unconditionally loved as much as the one loving us has the capacity to unconditionally love themselves

A
flash from beneath the christmas tree
like a person diving in the water
truncated by a fluffy tail, a blur of reality
a ball of fur as fast as lightning
thumping up the stairs
then back down
then back up
then back down

Water fills my lugs till the point where I don't
have space
like a field of lavender flowers
where I'll stay
forever
