the seasons change
and winter sets in
cold soaked
down to her bones
her smile fades
oh so slowly
sleep
sleep
sleep
sweet girl
forget this dreaded world
the rain pounds loudly
against the window
silencing the pain
that screams from within
dream
dream
dream
sweet girl
let your soul free
close your eyes
and just dream
Coffee and dreams
as our world
is fast asleep
in the quietness
of this place
we find ourselves
gently floating
through seconds
coffee and dreams
fill this space
that we share
a breath
of silence
falls upon us
and the day
finally awakens
though our time
here upon
this moment
doesn’t last
the love within
always will
Promises
Lying here
beneath
a blanket
of promises
I make
a wish on
every single one
and they
always
lead me back
to you
No one else
no one else
will ever
live inside
my soul
the way
you do
The poetry in her eyes
Demons
find me
in the darkness
of each night
but I wake
with poetry
in my eyes
each morning
Luminary
she was
like the stars
that twinkled
in the night sky
bright and mysterious
not always visible
but always there
Only sometimes
Back to you
I fall into
the sweet silence
of the night
darkness comes
as comfort
to my naked soul
drifting between
here and there
to the edge
and back again
the universe
has a way
of bringing me
back to you
each night
no matter where
in time we are
Forever
I must
have known you
in another
dimension
the way
the stars
fit in the sky
my soul
fits perfectly
with yours
Behind glass doors
her eyes struggle
to open
as the sun
peeks though
the broken windows
memories haunt her
to her core
but the scars
she still wears
behind glass doors
this little girl
still trapped between
these paper walls
where her secrets
still live
