This is about the girl who fell in love with the moon.
Resting against the cold glass window at night
To get a glimpse of the light on the side she laid eyes on
And wondered about the darkness she would never get to see.
This is about the girl who fell in love with the stars.
Watching them sparkle and shoot across the sky.
She shed a tear knowing these stars were long diminished
And wondered if she as well would leave such a lasting mark.
This is about the girl who fell in love with the rain.
Falling fast asleep to the quiet drops on the pavement
With colors forming through the heavy mist,
And wondered if she could ever be as beautiful as a rainbow.
This is about the girl who fell in love with the ocean.
Sinking her toes in the sand while breathing the salty air,
Noticing the fish swimming easily through the blue water
And wondered if she could glide through life the same way.
This is about the girl who fell in love with the sun.
Lying in the swaying grass, feeling a soft breeze on her cheeks
Only to be shaded by the birds flying free under the light
And she wondered if she could one day be as free.
This is about the girl who fell in love with solitude.
Curled up with the dusty pages of her favorite book
Reading of the lover’s who share their lives together,
And wondered if one day she might share her solitude.
This is about the girl who fell in love with you.
With the way your body wrapped around hers,
How you could command a room with the warmth of your smile
And she wondered if one day she could call you hers.
This is about the girl who fell in love with too many things.
Realizing none of them would ever be hers,
Knowing she had no one to share them with.
And she wondered if she would always feel so alone.
Heaven won't

be full of people
who simply


avoided hell.

i remember that you loved being read to
sitting on my lap, my arms around you
i pick out a stack of books
silly ones
you'll love
but you
sit on the other side of the rug
you won't
look at me.
i wait.
i ask.
i plead.
you won't
look at
me
my eyes want to turn into puddles
in front of the librarian
but i don't want you to know i'm sad
i ask you if you want to walk back
you say
yes.

with your seven year old eyes
i almost say
i am sorry...
but this is not
our
fault.

in the crook of my elbow

story

went
back.
i haven't seen my little brother all summer until today.

Suicide shot ¿

SHOTS! SHOTS! SHOTS!

too many and not enough
To drown.
A shot of grace

Shot-up Into the sky   )
BIG-BANG-BACK-BOOM

Exploding into fires.  §

Too many fluorescent nights
And shiny cars

Before an invisible king
Sending me back
To his throne
Someday
You might answer me
So I pray
Don't you abandon me.
Shoot up shots
of saint brokenhearted brokenness
And see
What no-one else sees
A Sea
Of saltwater tears
Drown away
All our fears
Shoot me please

All the fears
Dream of:
An infinite sway
Into the infinite place
I can be
A galaxy---or some other cool face
Of astronomical astronomy
Perhaps a nebulosity
A sign
Or constellation

The end of time

A hidden message...
I look to the east

Your face from the sky
Saying:
Hear you me?
Someday soon
You'll be
Here
With
Me                             ax.
