You want
to visit
for a
few days
after everything
why return
to the
scene of
the crime
for that
was not
an accident
not even
a surgeon
opens the
same wound
for surely
it will
cut again
and I’m
just not
sure if
there’s any
more room
on my
heart for
another scar
Month: January 2024
Potpourri
I’m a
hodge podge
mixed bag
a stew
a ratatouille
some this
some that
a little
bit extra
of everything
too spicy
to taste
too hot
to hold
best left
to simmer
and serve
when cold
Divinity
I can’t
imagine you
never could
never will
for you
I didn’t
know was
ever missing
what is
called a
thing never
lost yet
still found
a treasure
or just
some plain
old serendipity
maybe luck
or maybe
even divinity
TheKiss
It is
just this
a space
a moment
that’s stretched
the length
of eternity
a hesitation
a consideration
of uncertainty
a flood
of fears
an inch
then less
then touch
and everything
that was
wasn’t anymore
ever enough
Pause
Being here
you left
now wondering
do I
and it’s
that pause
that says
for before
had you
then I
would too
