Your name rests
Between my lips
Like a prayer
Or maybe
Something sweeter
Dripping off the
Tip of my tongue

I watched the night birds kiss
outside the window
They might be lovers,
or might be friends
Well I guess we'll never know
They perched on a tree branch to play,
and gaze upon each others eyes
Asking if this is okay
The moonlight keeps their secret,
before twilight they flew out each other's nest
then by night-time the night birds meet

~

i break like glass;
you break like waves
on the ocean.

~

A simple gesture
Smile with laughter
A wave across the way
Will surely brighten someone’s day
Total strangers
Two different worlds
Will make a difference
For sure
Try it

i adore cold weather.
But not for the fires,
Or the warmth of another person.
I find something beautiful about it,
And maybe even a bit lonely.
It reminds me of bittersweet loss,
And finding the strength to move on.

I hope that one day
you will no longer be imprisoned
by the limitations of your poor communication
that you were conditioned into
by your caregivers and society
may you be freed by cycles of mental trauma
