Love Becomes
Nevermore the lesser To be only as it nears Clever for the guesser Truly lonely has its fears
Unfinished Business
Falling in lust with this man, his broad shoulders and strong arms. His cocky grin and subtly arrogant jokes. All-encompassing the physical ideal she was searching for. Could it be she finally found a man who could help her?
Silent Killers
Silent Killers She sighs As starless skies Dull, bleak and faded like soot with humid air Close in on her Blinding fog Which Smells of burnt autumn leaves… Chokes Songs of spring Haunt like Memories of yore Each time…
The Fourteenth Child
This girl and I looked nothing alike. Her face freckled, auburn hair askew, and a casual stance with feet planted wide as if ready to sprint in either direction should the need arise.

The Void
Nothing is more depressing than the feeling of emptiness. Letting the void consume you whole, is a missed shot, entirely.
Leaving
Saying nothing, taking nothing, leaving nothing behind. Without saying goodbye.
Time Traveler
The eyes unfold and the story aligns-- rain from the sky sounds like punches I learned in my garage and Dad’s body rippled like the windows at night.
Blue Plastic Pool
I will always remember fondly a folding lawn chair Pulled up to the edge of a blue plastic pool
Dad
Are you still watching every breaking of dawn up there? Oh sure, you still. Maybe you're still touching my nose every time I sigh, or laugh or sneeze.
Dumped
Heart and Soul Won't let go Crippled me When I am alone Inspiration Seems to slow When someone speaks your name...
