I was already someone
before I knew you

I didn't always remember

when I read my old poems
I understand her

I know

I love her and
I want to meet her once again

pull out the knife,
from where you slid it in my side.
Let the blood,
rich and rosy,
drench your hands,
a reminder, a memento
to the times we passed
untainted, warm in the sun.
Avert your eyes,
from my prostrate pain,
out of sight,
you can raise your head,
pretending the role you played
didn’t bring me down.
They say that love is
Deep
Kind
Long
and Wide
But for me love is
Dead
Dark
Elusive
and Painful
And when my tear stained face finds a gentle hand to wipe away my sorrows
I fall in love
Or perhaps I fall in line
I’m not sure there’s a difference anymore
Life has seasons
And You're  the coldness of the winter,
The beauty of the spring ,
The hotness of the summer,
and The bluster of the autumn.
#winter is my favourite season
If conflict is human,
is violence a game

The law of the jungle
by some other name

A mortal endeavor,
to choose when we fight

With nature in judgment
—the wrong from the right

(Wayne Pennsylvania: August, 2020)
Air
You are like a deep breath
After spending years gasping for air
You are the brightest of days
After weathering months of storms
You are peace after a seemingly never ending war

But you’re not the air I breathe
I can do that on my own
But how nice is it to know that your breath can be synonymous with my own
To know this is ours to share
You whispered

And the Stars came into existence

It's beautiful
