Dec 2013
the crumbs don't lead back and they don't lead away. every breath and step, heavy as the hardest rain.
i feel you as close as thunder. mountains whisper about where ive been and what ive done. echoing out above outstretched wings and winter sun.
"this is who you are, who you were and who you can never be."
lost and found in the dirt. these leaves can't hide anything.
of all the stars ive named,
there's one i can't forget.  
always hanging here to watch the days fall, slow and overbearing.

i named you, regret. the ultimate consequence. there is no art in letting go. there is no light in your sky.
