We both pray you’ll return with the sun.

By the ocean,
before the night.
I broke, from missing you.

A man sees in the world what he carries in his heart.  – Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Past Eight

road amidst bare trees
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 to blame.

Mumbles first, like there’s someone to fight back.
Then, the knee goes,
not worry, just wonder.
Past eight…

…old lady’s not home.

Forgotten Notes

Let me sing to you, my daughter,
so I may make the strings of your heart,
play music that’s in between.

Lonely Heart

alone buildings city cityscape

It barely even beats.
Doesn’t matter though, now.

Given this heart…
only to stare at strangers,
thinking that for a life’s blink,
that stranger could have been you.

I tired of being wrong.
