Wandered a whiff,
trailing a breeze;
an inkling waft,
a tickling tease.
Faintly familiar...
Fragrant with ease.
Perfume of past,
present to please.

Because of You-
I belong among the wild flowers

I know he is going to take my soul
He left and it's raining
Freezing on my skin
Maybe it'll wash him away?

He is in the jokes I say
And the food I eat
He's all around me

He is gone
Taken my spirit along
I'm here
Waiting for a piece of him
A feeling of him.

Black and white are just colors
If you mix them like paints
Everything is a grey cloud
Without a silver lining

was a costly equanimity
I scavenged from the wars...

a lifetime spent, inventing ways
to close revolving doors...

She collects lovers
like wild berries,
not even realizing
that they’re
poisonous
