Confidence comes from
Failure and arrogance
Comes from success
A confident person
Has mastered failure
Whereas an arrogant
Person has chased
Success choose wisely

I do know what’s
Coming like summer knows
Fall I do know
That after our days
Of heat and humidity
Comes the change it
Always comes always comes
The breeze turns cool
Then brisk and strong
Prompting sweaters and slacks
To cover our nakedness
And the summers wildflowers
With what were green
Now yellow red brown
Seasons always change they
Always change from ignition
And finally to takeoff
And in the morning
Coffee in hand I
Crawl back in beside
And watch as the
Morning sun creeps like
A caterpillar up sheets
And lands on lids
Which flutter like butterflies
Showing me your eyes
Sleepy and darkly rich
Deep brown satellites hovering
And focusing on me
And then on coffee
First comes the kiss
And then the sip
On this our morning
And now we’re back
To being what we
Were before the explosion
Body parts recollected and
Pieced together perhaps better
Than before breakage seems
To make things stronger
For where once we
Were whole the thing
Which broke us apart
Now resolutely cements us
Together just like Cloisonné
In love and life
When we’re not talking
I fill that void
With our other conversations
It is as though
Ever since knowing you
Silence almost never visits
I am never alone
I may be the
Only person here physically
But like a medium
I hear your voice
Comforting reminding missing me
