I felt the cold set into my bones
When you said you didn’t love me

Let me take you down memory lane
Before all the scars and the pain
Before all the love in me was drained
There was a time when I had no shame
To say I love you the same
-
We both needed some company
Until she said
"I give you my heart, please no funny games"
We both had no intention to fall in love
But all that changed
When I said
"I love you and I hope you feel the same"
-
Sadly this is no fairy tale
No happily ever after
No wedding bells
Because you walked out of my life
And I was caught with my tail in-between my legs

why would you do the same
you'll have me anyways
no need to work it out
if i decide to live with the pain
why would you ever need to change
or force yourself to rearrange
the way things are right now
have come to like your place
weeks to know
months to loathe
once upon a time
not so long ago
you loved me so
i held your soul
now i have nothing
but i still won't let go
Orange shining through the window
We head outside to take a peek
Blue sky's to the North
A dark haze from the South

Small particulates drifting in the air
You reach out, and a piece lands on your hand
It looks like plant matter, only grey
You gently touch it with your free hand

. . . Ash.
September 2020 wildfires light up the west coast. My perspective from a small coastal town in Oregon. Miles from active burns.
It's a starry night

I gaze deep into the vastness of the heavens
There's a void tugging and tugging within

I long to fill it

I continue to gaze
I let the ocean of stars, bursts, matter and atoms carry me

Soothed
Calm

The void is satisfied

For now...
In loving memory,
You...
Gone and forgotten.

My hair was once all aquarelle
and peony, I wondered who

painted me

Ay
If you listen to people,
They tell you exactly who they are.
Listen to them,
Not your idea on who you thought they were.
