I am the lone wind
A moment's song, I kiss your
Skin then I'm gone.

Ripples surround me
A steady river flowing
Whispers memories.

i pretend through night
that the pink flower spring
is for us, wild woman

I watched you
        Leave,
But I can't let go
Tears still flow
       From,
When you left
     And yet,
My love still grows
     Like rows
Of poison ivy.

tonight my mind
is running in place

in a desert
I am a boiling

brain

there are no
words to express

or there is
nothing to feel

I am raw but I
want to be naked

exposed to my
demons

I hear
the black bird

screech I watch
it descend

I want it to
enter me

I splay my arms
display my soul

I want it to rip out
all my elements

so I can start over
