Here’s the funny thing
about life when you’re
in the middle of
something you wonder where
it will lead certain
that where you are
isn’t the place that
you’re supposed to be
But when you reach
the other side that
very specific place you
were hoping to get
look back for only
then will you see
that those places where
you were certain that
you didn’t belong were
precisely the places that
brought you finally here

Soon
I have often wondered
what an athlete thinks
when the finish line
is in sight do
they remember all of
the pain and sacrifice
all of the missed
memories and lost opportunities
or do they think
soon soon I will
triumph and then celebrate
These same feelings are
for those who propose
hoping they will hear
yes to their question
Trees
I see relationships as
a snapshot of a
particular moment with particular
people who through some
miracle of place and
time were at the
right moment I don’t
believe that they were
meant to last forever
Relationships are seasonal things
if one were to
think of one’s life
as that of trees
I’mGoingToHeaven
I’m tired of hotels
having lived in four
in these four months
it might seem glamorous
to some living the
hotel life but for
me it is grinding
like living in purgatory
waiting for sins to
be calculated waiting wondering
with so many strangers
all of us strangers
but me yesterday I
got the call finally
to move to Heaven
a small apartment overlooking
Denver and the mountains
Dreams
Oh life how wicked
You are dreams come
To mind then people
Like stones make achieving
Them uncomfortable and painful
Dreams will often wait
But it’s the people
Who are always impatient
