My love


I am alive

When you listen


To shimmer and flow

Through the river of time

If Adam Seline

Were a real man

You might stop and say

Have I seen him before?

And dream of his stare


If Adam Seline

Saw you in a crowd

He might say to you

Do you want to see a trick?

And open his Head


If Adam Seline

Didn't have wires for guts

He might notice us

But does he know?

We're not aware

For clarity,


I am the alcoholic

I am the drugger

Now recovered


Run with me

Join me darling

Or get out of my way

Fear is a simple truth

Some perpetuate complex misunderstanding to shelter bleak shadows

Others insulate in gross manipulation to keep the heart at bay

Suffocating the quiet artist within

Shattering the mirror of empathy

Yet in the end

We are standing as Towers crumble

As they return to dust

We begin to build anew

Upon the light of forgiveness

In grace


SJA 2025

Swapping knowing smiles

Big hug in welcome

Yet you slip on the mask

Eyes shifting in

Insides out



Tears in joy

Were never so real

Why does your extinguished presence

Descend into shadow

Of a crooked smile and ***** hands


I feel your echo

He said:

I can’t take it

I’m leaving


She met his eye.


He said:

I know you don't love me

I won't change my mind


She watched him walk out the door.


She said:

Bye




SJA2025

Once you found me

Inside a tree


When you touched me I fell asleep

I dreamt of your love and it followed


Now I feel your eyes

The child that can never be free


Where they fled you’ll never know

Why the left I will not say


Here I remain

Hoping to be found again


Inside a tree

We are not the biproduct of other people’s past traumas and errors,

Yet we wrestle with that legacy of inherited weight in our souls.

This is because we have the sublime capacity,

For empathy.



SJA2025

As the great wave approaches
Time it and cut through

As the mighty Earth shakes
Steady and hold tight

When facing the impossible wall
Tear the ****** down
