It’s only
the one
who when
absent their
memory smiles
and you
do too

NotGoingTo
I’m not going
to miss you
because I have
you again finally
I’m not going
to miss you
because I’m not
ever going to
ever again lose
you I found
you once and
then you found
me again and
now neither will
ever happen again
I’m not going
to miss you
for here you
will always be
here with me
SoRare (for Bean)
It is so rare
to find someone with
whom you get along
not just tolerate but
blend like watercolors that
lose their definition when
painted together someone who
knows your song and
hums along at the
same time you sing
it is so rare
to find someone who
effortlessly folds drapes and
delicately hangs around you
without distraction or delusion
someone who somehow does
those very things naturally
a mirror a reflection
a complement a spice
There’sSomething
There’s something about
someone who brings
his smile to
yours a generosity
of heart and
comfort of mind
it’s then when
the soul giggles
there’s something about
someone who brings
his eyes to
yours a saturation
of knowledge and
a depth of
curiosity this combined
is what I
both remember and
look forward to
NeverGone
He leaves today
but never gone
still sleeping likely
dreaming of home
we did try
to build something
together once but
we each had
work to do
on our selves
separately it is
so rare this
coming back again
stronger than ever
forgiving the past
planning the future
