Jan 2011
for blue skies I will be your angel
if you will be my star, in the black night
if you promise not to fade away
love,
if you shattered I would pull every piece of you
into my arms
don't you know
I forgave you when I opened my mouth to say hello
always I forgave you


quiet now, listen
she said
someday in a long while someone will open me up and they will take this out of me. They will not take it away and they
will not try to **** it. They will not try to understand it or belittle it.

they will hold it in their hands and they will look at it, the way I have done
late every night for a thousand dark nights and a thousand gray mornings. and they will treasure it, like I do, as a part of me.
they will hold it for me and I will hold it for them and we will be
resting souls,
able at last to see the world completely.
