a little part
of my heart
is back,
it never left,
i promise
now it's just here again,
so strong,
stronger than ever.
oh how i missed it.
and oh how
happy i am
to have it back,
thank you, universe,
i appreciate it
so much.
i wanted it back,
but i also needed it
to fade away so that i could
realize how much
i appreciate it,
how much i require it,
this little part
of my heart.

to write

observing is sheer pleasure;
writing is sheer pain.
but if we don't set down on paper
what we have observed,
how are we going to document
the miracle of life?

the seasons bring change

earlier on,
he had viewed the
seasonal flowers
as magnificent,
and gardens
as the most beautiful thing
in the world.

but when everything is grown,
the weeks stretch into months and
time is not
that of free will.

he and Emma had tea with
company around the globe.

distances will be among
the most difficult for me

but you need to do this
for me,
for you.

grapefruit

i can't explain this
feeling
so
so
bittersweet.
it's riveting
yet difficult.
it's so deep inside of me
that it has
consumed
every part of my life.
but is simple enough
to compare it to fruit.
someone, please
explain.

a bouquet of flowers

fulfillment...
like drugs
a bouquet of flowers
i split open the stems
pour over me
drench my costume
mirror my pain and pleasure

apathy from one
creates desolation for the other half
like the coffee grinds at the bottom of my mug
you are almost too much to handle

i wish you could tell me what you feel
but you dont have a phone
and i dont think id be
ready for it anyways

lets try again
in another life
where im the drug
and you are the one
staring at a bouquet of flowers

my young man

in the summer
for only a moment

he burnt his tongue
to the bottom of a flask
along with his gun

to settle down
to see that he
aimed correctly

with his blue eyes
which observed and
recorded everything

my young man
loving you
made a mark

when the music dosen't help

its been more than a day
yet it feels longer than that
re-thought
re-touched
re-done
everything still reminds me of you
and i know its bad
when the music doesn't help
