I have written
More to you
Than any other
Lover ever before
I have written
About you for
You to you
I have described
You places for
You places within
You you within
Places and yet
You are incomplete
Not that you
Are I am
I will keep
Writing for you
Until the world
Knows you exactly
As I do
If you’re afraid
To do things
Remember this mantra
Had I not
Then
You never could
Don’t waste your
Time seeking certainty
Certainty is like
A gopher when
It appears suddenly
It is gone
Then its over
There and there
Instead seek clarity
For like water
Clarity flushes out
The gopher of
Certainty allowing you
To catch it
Your path is
Like a tree
Not only growing
Out but growing
Up each individual
Branch represents a
Choice some branches
End some branches
Intersect with other
Branches while others
Find their way
To other branches
In other trees
But remember this
Upwards or outwards
The direction is
Uncertain and improbable
Growth cannot be
Contained if one
Is to flourish
Be your best
Tree your most
Majestic tree bringing
Shade to the
Weary and uncertain
Once you forgive
Anger goes away
You see it
For what it
Was whatever it
Was a lesson
Or a lifetime
Or something in-between
Don’t hold onto
Things that hurt
Or anger you
Try forgiveness first
And remember that
Whatever it was
It simply was
