So he was
Beside me and
We laughed and
Kissed and joked
About life it
Wasn’t as important
As whom but
What we melded
Like iron and
Fire simply creation

Ghosts
It is often
The ghost of
What once was
That haunts us
Not the who
Is right now
It’s very difficult
To see someone
As they are
Rather than what
They were so
Long ago when
You first met
Memory tends to
Favor the past
GoneGone
At last finally
When I close
My eyes it’s
Simply black and
Peaceful no more
Smiling memories or
Laughter I’m alone
With my empty
Mind no longer
Thinking about you
For now not
Only are you
Gone but you’re
Gone from me
Seesaw
We played on
The seesaw up
And down and
Up and down
Laughing at how
Odd we were
Yet still balanced
But then one
Day there wasn’t
You across from
Me and I
Didn’t know how
To rise again
And then I
Discovered me alone
I pushed to
Stand and finally
My own balance
No more games
No more tipping
Just me there
On my own
DanceLoveDance
The heart sees
What the eye
Cannot the eye
Is like a
Furloughed sailor often
Grabbing the first
Drink he can
Becoming intoxicated quickly
Slurred and stepping
On delicate toes
Ah but the
Heart is patient
Retired and kind
Embracing and dancing
One slow waltz
After another adding
Intermittent butterfly kisses
Between each dip
