Let us chase the sunset
Before the sun disapears
Sit by the beach on the bench
Your hand in mine my dear

Let us watch the moon rise
Bright in the sky so dark
Stars twinkling like diamonds
Flickering on waters black

Our moments together are brief
Precious time keeps running away
Soon you will have to leave
Till we meet another day

This parting is so hard my love
And patience is a virtue
Unlike the moon and sun above
We will be together soon

❤ I love you L. ❤

What was the ground like
Before you were in it?
Solid and untouched
Not yet a body pit.
Did it know this was
the fate that lie ahead?
Were there other hopes
than consuming the dead?

Now I’m sitting here
Knowing you’re six feet deep.
The thirsty ground yields
the tears from fallen cheeks.
Maybe after time
Has come and gone from me.
There will sprout flowers
Where my tears used to be.

Then there I will be
Next to you in the ground.
Nothing more than names
On tombstones to be found.

Falling from the heavens tears of slate fell in earnest
upon creation all withered in frozen chambers
concealed from the breath of light.

Upon the sunrise all were left but shadows of former
selves. Crimson ash blew in though the winds and the
sky turned like wine all drinking in it subtle taste.  

But then when night fell, all that was but shadow was
reborn under moonlight, dimly lit darkness was like
nectar, ebony shades motioned gorging on onyx.

But then the sun rose and the dance of perpetual eternity
once again faded into to tears of blush coating the sky
in the need to be with the ebbing moments of obscurity.

No matter the weather
or the nicks and dents
you’ll acquire without effort—
no matter how experiences—
the whole of them—
may short change you
into a thing
that you barely recognize—
don’t let that chin drop.

Everyone can see
the potential
in a heads up penny.
