Where Do You Start?

Covers pushed to our feet

My head on his chest, I can hear his heart

Room wreathed in soft shadows

His hand rough against the skin of my back

Soft breeze caressing our bodies


It’s quiet.

I haven’t felt this settled, this still, this comfortable

In I don’t know how long

I feel grounded

Tomorrow seems far away

Right now seems to stretch forever


He shifts

“Did you ever mean it?”

He says...

Sleep

Every morning I wake up more tired then yesterday

Longing for a night of sleep deep enough to forget

Living in a world that isn’t quite clear anymore

A life that isn’t being lived because I cannot sleep...

They say it only appears once in a blue moon. When the light hits the street right between the old library and pillared courthouse. At exactly 5 past 6. When the snow has melted and there’s been no heavy rain in 9 days. Only when it’s been 3 days with the scent of fresh cut grass and baked bread at the edge of the air.

The cottage is painted white but it’s more of a light grey...

I stare. The wind rushes past me, bringing with the smell of of plastic and wood burning, and I can’t think. Burning, burning. My minds empty, all I can do is stare. I feel like I’m floating, removed. Above this burning world. “My son”. The thought slips in and suddenly time starts moving faster. I spin around to the shadows behind me. “I know your there” I scream. “I know your there. You told me ...

Fate is about belief

And I do not belief

How can I?


How can I?

When the world brought me you

And I did not want you

Fate is about belief

A good thing will come

But I do not believe...

Tonight will be our last sunset. You will never see me again. As the sun rises I will fade with the shadows. Tomorrow I will be nothing but a recollection at the edge of your mind. A fleeting memory. One that appears when you least except it and that you will never quite be able to recount. It’s ok. This is how it goes. I am not meant to be remembered. It’s ok. I will always remember you. This is ...
