i wonder
upon tip toes
‘cross fragile glass
of yesterday
cracks in new places
seeping into tomorrow
carry me away from
memory’s place
to where dreams come
wonder this day, upon
others. Where what you
know brings peace; laced
in strands of unknown
tinkered thoughts, of
what’s real. Where hearts
matter in loving; others’
storied past
there lies a truth, in
life. Where faith in
another; belies
a guarded soul
what is known, is
as such. Where doubt
comes; so comes
your devil
Faith lends no assurance, or it cannot be.
where found finds lost
‘n lost finds found
epic adventures bound
‘pon dreams
of circumstance
‘n love of another
crafted in patience
‘dorn everlasting
… peace
Yesterday was the day, I began
to miss you; us.
As I felt it, and saw it
buried within; interactions.
Layered in intimacy, of stories
of each other; trust.
Where you became, beautiful
to me; forever.
Readers, know nothing of this
of us; truly.
But a handful of ours’, we may
have shared; legacy.
In thoughts that come, with
a gaze above the horizon; love.
Milky Ways and, desperate days
hold me; grounded.
There I’ve come, today
missing you; just you.
Whispered voice, ‘n emerald eyes
guide me; my muse.
Unconditional
hold my hand
drape your arm
‘cross my shoulders
rock with me
while a sun sets
and let the tears
fall upon my cheek
please. Do not try
to fix me. Let me be.
for just a minute
or two – – –
there i was
when she wasn’t
‘n
there she was
when i wasn’t
every. day.
Edited this piece a little – wanted to keep things fresh and keep working on my craft.
the way tomorrow comes
lies in the truth of mourning
disturbed slumber
of nights past
cradled ‘tween dreams
and scented pillows.
