Lately
thinking about her has become more of a chore
Lately,
I haven't slept, because I know when I lay down she'll be the first thing that comes to mind.
Lately,
I've tried to avoid her in my brain because you're pain, but I can't
Lately,
when I address her in my writing I've been using "her" instead of "you" because I don't want to trick myself into thinking we still talk
Lately,
I've thought way too much
Lately,
I can't breathe without her

How nice it would be
to walk into the sea
warm waters lapping my knees.
To go further into the surf
the warm sea of this earth
deeper still, until submerged
down deep until purged,
with the drowned of this world
floating and bloating in purgatory.

The thunder rumbles in the distance
I cringe after every boom
The breezes pick up
And stir the tall evergreens
The light in the evening sky has faded
Black clouds line the sky
Where has the sunshine gone?
The familiar scent of rain
Perfumes the stifling summer air
Lightening flashes in the sky
My heart beat quickens
With every bolt of electricity
That brightens up the horizon
Like a display of fireworks
On the fourth of July

There's a starling
singing soprano
in the dogwoods,
such happiness.

Silence comforts me
in this early hour.

Here I lie
alone,
peeking through plate glass
at the beautiful
heavens above.

A million crystals
adorn the pitch,
twinkling subtle harmonies
& I wonder,
I wonder about you,
if you see the same summer skies,
if you have the same itch,
lying alone
in wonder.

O I feel
you,
your sweet power,
my love.

It's chilly outside
this woolen blanket,
I'm staying
under it curled.

She lies
magnificently,
feminine poetry,
so beautiful
in snapshot.

I feel her every word,
fiery fingertips
swirling a tempest
& I am smitten,
yet so frustrated,
I cannot touch
her luscious lips.

Meditation
To become familiar with oneself.
It's an art of controlling mind.
Self soothing is possible by meditation
The way we do is just close your eyes
And concentrate on your
Inhalation and exhalation
Avoiding thoughts that roam in your mind
The more you Meditate the less you will be Medicated
Because if you are strong internally
You don't need medicines for many things.
