This I know
You are windows
And not walls
You let me
See rather than
Keeping me hidden
You give me
Air to breathe
Sunshine to feel
Rain to watch
You teach me
Things about myself
That without windows
I’d never see

ItAlwaysComes
Change is coming
I hear it
In the wind
It’s a far
Off voice calling
Come this way
Or if not
I will come
There to you
Change is coming
I see it
On the horizon
First as clouds
Then as mountains
Stretching higher higher
And dropping sheets
And sheets of
Rain blackening landscape
And then disappearing
Change is coming
Change always comes
It always comes
It always comes
OneDayOneDay
Oh I know
I know that
It is coming
Which is why
I keep staring
Making you uncomfortable
Because I know
I know that
Eventually one day
You will be
Gone and I
I will be
Staring at nothing
LoveIs
Love is gravity
It keeps us
Grounded for without
Either or both
We would simply
Easily float away
Like the clouds
Do every day
SimpleThings (for Jay)
It’s like I
Never thought of
You because you
Were always here
Here every day
Why did it
Take eighteen months
To understand that
It is you
You that makes
My morning morning
And bedtime bedtime
That without you
Those simple things
Would simply be
Just simple things
How did I
Not know that
Those simple things
Make everything else
Between them better
Just like the
Sun and moon
Make my world
The world that
It is better
