Trying to capture my
Feelings for you is like
Watching an adder bite
The tip of its' patterned tail.

Writing for you is like
Waiting for raptures light
To spark inspirations, so
The right words might bless me

Loving you has restored my
Life from the shambles
The shadows of loneliness
To our unions bright future

I live everyday
To see your beautiful face
I'll brave any storm to
Reach your embrace, and I swear

To the end of my days
I'll be the best in my way
For you, my lovely friend
I would do almost anything.

Please don’t ask me about the
Shake in my hands,
The kicks of my legs
The pain behind my eyes.
What keeps me
In these beds, these chairs...
What made me scream in my sleep
In those first years...

Ask me how I feel
When I see a buzzard fly low
Scaling the fields with its beauty.
Ask me how I feel when I see a kingfisher
Trail blue beauty on a grey day.

Ask me how mossy rivers
Still weave a path
Around my heart. I
Feel their flow still, from here.

Ask me how I feel
When my fragile body
Sits beside them
In those precious moments
Held high against the grey.

Ask me how I feel
When blackbirds
At dusk promise beauty
Scythed feather calls
From the dark.

Ask me how I feel
When the shadows move the hills
When light shapes the dark
When the old gods call in
Winter winds.

Ask me how I feel
When I capture their image
On a sensor, when my
Heart soars with the swallows.

Has a name
this everyday
Just another one like any
The name is not necessary
For it to be special
Call it what you will
It is today
