What is my faith?
Because I know it's in you.
It's in God too.
I've always trusted it,
I believed.
No doubt.
But now you have some of it.
You'll be mine again.
I know it.
Experience, logic, rules say no.
You said no.
But we're not done.
I'm sure.
...And not.
Is the only reason I'm so secure
That I've never been challenged?
Will God go away
When you do?
My heart knows you'll be mine again.
My head isn't so sure.
Who to trust?
Time.
Patience.
Maybe one day I'll know.

I love you.**
Tonight I wrote that
So I could begin to understand why.
But it's like the name God.
The word can't explain something so immense it encompasses the universe.
And neither can I.

Our lips are so in love
Even our words intertwining
Sign betrayal
Well before our mouths touch.
So come kiss me.
It'd be like talking
But more honest.

Let's weave a web of Grace,
Where intuition sings to feeling;
Here
Compassion finds sanctuary.
Power hides in cunning,
And beauty is a front
Disguising a strength
Much deeper than eyes can see.

Let's braid an unbreakable thread,
Long and subtle let it run through the world;
Ready?
We'll capture understanding
And showcase it for the world to see.

I am part of you, I run with you,
Dear sister.
I will not waver by your side,
Nor will

Do you remember that night?
This was moment I loved you.
I was so deeply terrified;
I cried in relief as I burrowed my face in your embrace;
So silly of me,
All that fear in being left alone for the first time.
You probably never knew.

I'm always taken by your memory
And we're long and over,
The people we were no longer exist.

I am in love with a kind man
Who is my world.

And you are a friend to me,
No longer the shining knight
But a sentimental bestie
Too far away to talk often.

But sometimes I dream about you;
Back when you were the safest place I knew

It takes me to a forgotten sanctuary
You put deep in my heart
I go there and I feel again.
I go there and I'm free.
I'm reborn a newer self.

And now I know why all the famous lyricists
Lament the great mystique of young love
For I find my former self anew
In the memory of you.
And though words fail to convey;
I am forever grateful.

I'm so tired
Can I just go to sleep?
No?
Okay
Just           a      k
          w                   e       up
to a new morn
and new problems
while the old remain undisturbed

you lie sleeping as I watch
waiting for you to awaken
gazing upon your skin, your hair
as you gently wet your lips
with just the tip of your tongue

bedclothes slowly rise and fall
as you draw sleep's shallow breaths
and send them softly whispering
through the dim morning light
your fingers gently flex

subtle movements drift across your face
I want you to return to me
to see you react upon awakening
finding me so near
your eyelids quickly flutter

My lips brush lightly against your hair
I linger lazily on its scent
as your eyes begin to open, I wonder
what will I see in them
and what will you see in mine?

I thought

we’ve been    through it all

but you            threw it all

 away.

-

nothing is left
                             now but
  
my broken pieces
