uncertainty

cautious

twilight

my future

lies

one step

ahead

traversing

craggy

paths

moving

tail

winds

holding

your

arm

we

go

My

eyes

leap

off

your

cheekbones

diving

into

deep

chocolate

morsel

ponds

where

I

swim

languidly

like a

teen-aged

boy

on

summer

vacation

Life

storms

raged

yesterday

tearful

downpours

lightening

strikes of

truth

gales of

honesty

tore roots

of lies

cyclone of

deceit

cleared

foundation

now

aftermath

born

rebuilding

upon

nothing but

clarity

and

truth

Ceaseless

words

epiphanies

Delicate

surfing
alighting
windowsills
shoulders
graceful
harbingers
of hope
embodying
change
moving
from green
to orange
pure
cherubs
transforming
us
from
plain
to
winged
beauties
capable
of
anything

Sitting

between

us

parts

of

used to

be

broken

pieces

refusing

compromise

unglued

worn

unhinged

disavowed

toys

once

bound

together

now

scattered

messy

fingering

them

avoiding

attempts

at reconstruction

we’ve

become

unusable

scraps
