how to break a heart

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 23:27:04 -0600

the space in my life where I left you gapes a chasm only the wind crosses stealing the chill through me to my fingertips the part of myself mirroring you has been shattered torn out left behind sorrow and loneliness creep into the void learning to ignore the pitiful bereft self that wails for mercy begs me to...

vernum.

Wed, 18 Jan 2012 02:59:49 -0600

in the changing season, finally alone with myself, I can hear you - on the shore of molten winter; in whispering, tentative green and pendulous droplet - isolate what creates me; your voice separate from my thoughts - you surround the surface of my mind like frost on clear glass. spring comes - the sun warms; ...

forward.

Tue, 06 Dec 2011 01:36:45 -0600

the joy of motion: I feel, therefore I must go forward. I live, therefore I must go elsewhere. never so alive as I am with a plan; perfection in departure. I breathe, therefore I cannot remain here - so I leave, and therefore I rebuild my world. striving to find the place I belong in, and once I ... Read More

fate.

Mon, 28 Nov 2011 23:58:50 -0600

I ask myself more times than there are pebbles on the beach: why now and here? did my path divide? would I have gone another way? yet. the wheel turns, and things do change. and to see this place alight with warmth and laughter; to feel the sun on me and all the living thing... Read More

north.

just because you cannot see the majesty of this night sky doesn't mean I will close my eyes lay down my head become blind because you freeze at winter's touch does not mean I also wrap up and miss feeling the North, the thrilling chill on my own skin you can reject this place in favour of somewhere different, called home un...

retracing.

Mon, 24 Oct 2011 20:45:52 -0500

illusions like scales from the eyes fall and now I see it. take me back to believing it was that easy. I have seen into the hearts of others, and now I see that what faith I held in you was fruitless. perception changed and vision altered so I can see that vain hope for better was a pacifying drug exhausti...

axis.

Sun, 25 Sep 2011 02:42:21 -0500

sometimes I am still and the world spins around me and I am the centre of a great wheel going round; I'm the axis in the storm's eye awake, I hold my breath and wait for the floor to decide throw open the window, drink cool dark air which tastes of the sea and calls me, like a needle finding north, to the ocean ...

better.

Wed, 24 Aug 2011 22:46:13 -0500

we go on somehow. each day as your flame grows dimmer and fades the distance each moment draws and we go on. somehow. even without your light your spirit. because you were, I am better. and now I feel you everywhere you make us strong; you make us free our glowing hearts aflame, for you we go on s...

at dusk.

Mon, 22 Aug 2011 23:20:48 -0500

it was never - you were never. there's nothing here to see. looking over my shoulder, I find you were not following me - and now, at last it's clear that it never was; will never be. find me in the glow of dusk, streetlights - lit up in your bright headlights - smell of summer asphalt, your tires and the speed, my p...

parting

Sun, 21 Aug 2011 00:47:55 -0500

goodbye. goodbye. [the only good learned from constant leaving - trailing from one place to yet another] goodbye, goodbye [is that you can take it with you: home is nothing to do with where you are] goodbye - goodbye [the only good in any number of partings is to discover you lost nothing and are whole] ...
