'Nameless and patient, these things had been waiting in the dark, waiting for her to come back and enjoy them. They met her eye with self-possession.'

What life do words have if I don't breathe them, but swallow them, more caged birds for my stomach? Open my mouth to you, let my words speak feathers to your skin

From the shadows, you are watching me dance in the light, smiling at you, beckoning. You are not coming closer; I understand, it feels safer there. I will also take shelter in the dark, existing but unseen, finding you in words unwritten.

tiny winged thing
[broken or unbroken]
as breath held soft
within my body
or released to sky
[together or apart]
you are still
my heart

Memories of words that still live, unseen, unheard, but breathing, humming, in fingers, on lips

Entangled in your absence, each day is a petal we didn't slip between pages, each star-thorned night a thigh unkindled by nails; but in this embrace of words, we still feel, you and I.

lanterns dark
out of light's depth
night shines its shadows

'Dreams pass into the reality of action. From the actions stems the dream again; and this interdependence produces the highest form of living.'

Tell me, always; each of your words a touch, leaving your fingerprints on my lips as I read them; you are here, felt to my toes, held in my chest, seen night and day, rippling each breath with your name.

Photo taken today of a treelined forest lane near my home village; the lane is covered in brown and russet leaves, and the leaves on the trees are burning from yellow to red.
