Grey covers the blue
A dark black blanket
Pinned on the sky
Thunderously shaking
Lacking an eye
Monstrous

Lightening danced, rapturous

Glaring at the green
Unleashing its wrath  
With a downpour
Ripping off the velveteen
Dousing the sunshine
Tenebrous

The taste of pennies
in her mouth
As she continues
to bite

Her lips
Her cheeks
and her
Tongue

Holding back
So others
can
Breathe

All the while
she
Bleeds

You ever bite your tongue,
to not hurt someone with the truth?

You bite down even harder,
knowing it's only hurting you.

Hello
You are missed beyond measure
No matter when the hurt subsides
Rears its ugly head when one least expects it
Tears flow behind masks or dark shades
Just when it gets easier
Grief is horrible company
We will never forget or completely let go
Too many cliches to count yet more to create
The last said goodbyes need to be kept as Hellos
Turn around they are always looking for you and you them
Angels appear in different ways and forms
You might just recognize them

seascapes slowly slide
drifting on memory's tide
her warmth kept inside

vision so vital
to all a poet is;
silent beauty whispers
its miracles only
to those listening.

the poet cursed
with eyes and ears
the clamor of
a living, dying world
inundates
their soul

finding refuge
from the deluge
in a quiet stream of stanzas

never realizing the blessing
of the eye of the poet

until all the words have dried
