You’ve seen me before.
in search of winding rivers to soften my fall,
carried to banks where lovers trace dreams on the wind
I have known rain
I have known life
I once waited for sun—
Now I search the sky for storms,
for the glimmer of soft edges,
mimicking stars

It’s bittersweet leaving a place I once treasured, but excited to start over where the skies are much bluer. Let’s connect!

The want never strong enough
Darkness raining down

The want never strong enough
Darkness raining down
#vss365 #vssdaily #vsspic #haikuchallenge
with words growing
from irregular breath
barely tinted air
& sobs caught in the throat
the hand moves on
ink spills onto page
answering inscrutable calls
no promise of gain
no triumph sought
just the act
of raising a voice
against the void

she falls asleep...
shades of golden
pick apart a breeze
encouraging her
to stay asleep~

traces of tears linger still,
The #lobster now a brittle shell upon the plate,
The champagne's bubbles faded to nothing
It was us
Two summer clouds adrift in a sky of gray
Two rosebuds,
wilting in the cold vase
We loved,
While time slipped away,
Lost beneath its veil

How did I miss the turning?…
Sunlight shines upon a #rose
As I remember lying to myself
Stunned I morphed into a statue
From your perfume spell
Lingering from the corner
Your shadowy figure
Sashayed away
Leaving me lost
In your love search

'Umm, in here, Igor. My latest invention that turns people into iconic celebrities malfunctioned and zapped me.'
'Oh. Short bleached blonde hair. Bright red lip stick. Very short mini dress.'
'I've been Debbie #Harried.'
'Malfunctioned, you say.'

It is raw, quiet and slow
like our love.
It is raw, quiet and slow
like our love.
My refuge found in shadows
My body surrendering to lethargy
The heart of my heart can't stir
Yet perhaps sometimes,it trembles
A stain on my soul,
Faint as the breath of a lost star.
I want to touch, it's an echo,
The world a distant murmur
And time..time dissolves

A globe disoriented
They clambered forever locked in
A life #harried
Quiet, in the steal of noise
The world spun dizzied
Some shadows parallel
Sunshine dipped inbetween, wanted
