Kin
You were already dead to me.
But, I couldn’t stop my heart,
when yours did.
I’m Broken
By the ocean,
before the night.
I broke, from missing you.
Tainted Blood
A lonely peer, a doorway.
Most still lay asleep.
Strangers, cloaked as lovers.
Lineup…for the rabbit hole.
Their smiles, fake, and you know it.
Will, did not lead them here.
All they want is to shower in that devil’s medicine.
Melt and run away.
How can you hold their hand?
Allow their laughter, their play,
to fill an ego until you trick them.
With a lie like the blood is clean.

A man sees in the world what he carries in his heart. – Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Forgotten Notes
Let me sing to you, my daughter,
so I may make the strings of your heart,
play music that’s in between.
Journal Entry # 122 – Plant Those Trees
Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree. – Martin Luther King, Jr.
Am I Write? # 2 – Never Doubt Yourself
“And by the way, everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt.” – Sylvia Plath
The Red Road
I walked a path less travelled,
on a road covered in red.
Evergreens bowed before me,
to welcome back an old soul.
Draped, lonely…in silence.
A still that became my only friend.
There, my worries were sheltered,
protected by a forgotten trail.
That journey became ritual,
to protect me from blended reality.
I ran as soon as the sun would let me,
far away from the stranger who looked just like me.
