Distance

away in the distance
whisper in a field,
a prince in a castle
grass tall as the gates,
a troubled door
dragons breath,
a fire escape

I saw you there

I saw you there,
imagined you bare.
Enamored, entranced—
your voice struck a spark,
a flicker in the dark.
In one brief instant,
you lit up my heart.

momma deer

Dear,
If you were here with me,
I’d drape my coat over us
so the unsympathetic winds
will pass over you, no fuss.
once you learn why
I did what I had to do,
in your heart, you surely will construe.

Presence

The presence of my soul
stands before me
begging for mercy
to become
who?
someone worthy
in this journey
so-called life.

Ineffable Desire

You make my brain go numb and wild at the same time

Ineffable things I would do, to make you mine.

soul strings

Test me
open me

dissect my soul into strings.

Braid them and wear them
for my soul will protect you.

light above the stove

the light above the stove
looks dimmer
without you.
