Versions

I write from left to... write
I also "right" what's left from wrong
but when I write from right to left
I change the rites
of you

Should I?

I felt karma whisper,
"You thought I'd never visit?
Open the door."

Should I?
Could we be friends?
Did she stop by to say "HI"
or to throw my irresponsibility
on the table?
Better yet, throw my selfishness in my face?

Teach

The mind will never learn
until the heart does
and that's the toughest pupil
to teach

.The End

It feels like
there are only so many times a heart can break
until the pieces get so small
that putting it back together
will take a lifetime

Time Broke.

The hands of time
took care
from one minute to the next
till they left it in an hour
and moved on without it.

Time, then, broke.

Happening

"What is your greatest fear?" he asked.

"For words to flee" she said.
