LetGo

And as the 
leaf said to
the tree let
me go for
I have an
adventure to attend
to so will
I let you
go for you
are not a
leaf but an
adventurer ready to

Ache

My heart aches 
knowing that things
can be better
aching isn’t enough
I can ache
all day long
things never better
what does the
soul say about
anguish oh right
pay no mind
to what the
brain says for
it is devious
only ever listen
to the soul
for it knows

Pearl

The sky resembles 
the lining of
an oyster shell
streaks of pink
and blue and
white and gray
and even orange
and I wonder
if our world
is a pearl
cradled in the
cosmic azure ether

Sunrise

It’s interesting to me 
that the buildings man
have made reflect sunrise
making them eerily glow
like ghosts absent souls
but the mountains remain
dark and patiently quiet
thankfully awaiting their turn
for Heaven to nod
like souls in purgatory

TheRoad

Once on a road 
a hundred miles straight
in one direction another
hundred miles straight in
the other I stood
thinking
What if I stayed
right here right here
where I am would
the people over there
notice would the people
that way notice would
any of them miss
me
what if I stayed
Every single day of
my life I have
asked the same question
and every single day
of my life I
hear the same answer
no
no one would care
so why should I
and so I continue
down the same road
with the hundreds of
miles in front and
the hundreds of miles
behind knowing that no
one in either direction
would care if I
if I ever dared
to ever keep going
