Two lonely words… I’ve said them a few. They always stare back, when they’re meant for you.
Where were the tears that day? Our loss must have voided my heart. Each time I taunted with emotion, my soul would squeeze even tighter. Then, past a wet wind’s […]
My throne upon wet stones. Waves crashing making me get lost. Howls of violence outside stop me dead in almost silence. No one would follow me to where I could […]
There was an alone never felt before. The night giving way to the morning. I watched the mist dance. Skin crawling from a day’s long. As I sat paralyzed thinking […]
I’ll stand that day, at the foot of your grave. Just past the last of those who cared. My presence will be for a moment, give a second for each […]
I held the prettiest flower this morning. It reminded me of you. Sadly, it too had been plucked from its roots.
I had you for a while, then…I lost you to the sea. Alone in these narrows, until the day you return to me.
I sat one day. Alone, on a palette chair. Sit in spatters and their quiet stories. Did watch as pebbles danced in entertain. For granted, I was easily led. So […]
Late at night, when it’s just me and the moon. We both pray you’ll return with the sun.
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. […]
Whistles silent, brews stress pinched to the nape. TV flickers black and white but can’t turn it off. Frozen mittens dry from the blessed heat, brings sweat with no one […]
Let me sing to you, my daughter, so I may make the strings of your heart, play music that’s in between.
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 […]
I remember that song. Every note just for me. Sweet melody, aimed straight toward my heart. Our souls in tandem with the music. I’d bathe in the cast of your […]

A lull from the hillside early morn, like a whisper from you. I stood in the chill… …with a tear reminder, of what I’ve lost. Sweep me up, walk with […]
A poet should be so crafty with words that he is envied even for his pains. – Criss Jami
If my trial has ended, why do your stones still lay at my feet? My deepest wounds will never heal until their forgotten. No, always they fester, they ache, like […]
A hill where a mermaid danced, lay marked by a single stone. Tales left to imagine, on the night’s when the harbour’s alone. The land once rose above her, to […]
Grant me that yesterday tomorrow. I want to run again in November rain. Taste once more, those raindrops. Pinch me because I’m alive. Let me feel it to the bone, […]
I can no longer hold my breath. I rather drown, then wade in false hope. You’ve given me every emotion I’m capable of, I’ve fallen hard, so many times. How […]
I remember nights that seemed only for me. Everything still, silent…time fixed. I sat by shore, lost in its wake. Watched as mossy moorings danced in captivate. The moonlight stretched […]
Wintery winds howl, calling a bluff. The sky’s story turns dark, when only halfway. Each of my breaths, more and more breath. They followed in dance, but leave me too. […]
Your smile must have been a mask, that allowed you to deceive the unsuspecting. As the cold steel cuts through my flesh, I wonder if it was I, who handed […]
Wonderwall plays the lazy afternoon. Rack em’ before the crowd shows. I can smell the night before from the Ashtrays. Stained carpets, humming I got used to. Friend by hello, […]

Why can’t I smile and mean it anymore? Is it because of my friend, dear Misery? But, I’ve known her now, more than anyone of flesh. She whispers constantly in […]
Eight tracks and underage, hard rock for the teenage, one summer eve, surrounded by kings. They rolled their tokes, shared loose smokes, and bragged, of sweetheart flings. I watched all […]
Just because, I take a breath, leaf-peeping through autumn hues. Chilled zephyrs race tears down a single cheek, that dewy brisk, restorative. I wander along the many tints and tones, […]
One day in May,will forever be.When a gift was born,and bestowed upon me. One day in May,as flowers grew.Love, true love,that first look at you. One day in May,20 years […]
Got inspired by this picture I took on my run today. Poetic I felt.
‘Every morn…I look up for a brighter sun, to cast away clouds that still pursue me. Told that time will move them forward, patience should be a friend. Though, all […]
Until…I see you, my heart will save your place. I’ll gather the missing beats, store them just in case. Until I see you, my love is forced to pace. Until […]
All I hear is the wind, the rain…slaps at me. My mind has frozen, but whitecaps still capture. To the bone and in drench, I see the window… where you’re […]
This is not who I want to be anymore, someone with his eyes fixed to the ground, distracted, wondering, wanting…wishing. A glimpse of hope for this cancerous heart, lied buried […]
I will concede to your wishes, we’ll leave the rest to chance. There’s nothing left to take hold, time to sever the branch. Poisoned are the seeds, laced within the […]
I could not hold my breath any longer, your back to me that day. I expected so many things until, until that moment when you turned, to shed a tear […]
Am I still… a string of your heart? Or does it lie frayed, too torn apart. Seasoned now, but still we’re broken, enough has always been, left unspoken. See my […]
