Timeless

I need you to promise, “someday, my love, somehow”
for You are he whom I most love in this eternal “now”
Yet I fear this “never” will prove your final bow
Can you find a lifeline of requited love allowed?
I just miss you so much! See it etched upon my brow?
You are my yesteryear, my future, my forever Now

Sobriety

That darkness you want
And forget why.
That sleeping monster,
Will you dare?

There's an angel who'll
Be my light, be my sword,
She's my guardian angel,
Always has been.

My demons tell me to
Quit. I'm no quitter.
They call me weak—
I just want that to be okay.

Sobriety digs a hole,
That I fill with seconds
One by one. I pick them
Off of my skin.

My life is the shadow
Of the sun. Its back turned
To me. That's how far I am
From home.

Sobriety
