there is just something about you
that is so ingrained
under my skin
that at times
it takes my breath away
and I need a map back
to my own heartbeat

The fabrics of life
I watched her fold the fabric
neatly and gather it gently
under my peaceful face
I remember her hands
comfortable and tender
tucking me away in bed
telling me stories
of Kings and Queens
and a land far far away
the way her mouth would smile
as she reached the end
of the fairytale
I remember the softness
of her voice
as whispers of goodnight
filled my sleepy head
and as I drift off to dream
that’s how I’ll remember her
in the quietness of the silence
that’s where she will live
for eternity
Dancing shadows
sometimes the night
secretly finds me
dreaming of the dancing
shadows of you and I
and I know
that at least in dreams
I’ll love you
with just a little bit
of everything that consumes me
Luminous
standing at the window
she reads their love letters
to the universe
an infinite reflection
of who she was
staring back at her
as the colors of the moon
paint a luminous mural
across the room
the thought of him
comes flooding back through her
like it was just yesterday
and the goodbye
hurts just the same
a promise once made
now
just a bitter-sweet memory
How do you let go?
how do you let go
when all you want to do
is hold on
that’s the tragedy of life
I guess love
had other plans for us
Novel
lay me down
and open me
like your favorite book
waiting to be read
tracing over the lines
of my novel
memorizing every word
there’s something about the way
you slide your fingers
between my pages
that makes my stories
come alive
Poison – A Collaboration
Thank you to my best friend Christopher for collaborating with me once again. Poison has been waiting to be released for a few months now and the wait is finally over! These collaborations for me have been the highest compliment as a writer. I can’t thank you enough Christopher for allowing me to be a part of this. I hope we get another chance to write together again soon! Much love to you! Please head over to his page and check out his incredible writing Christopher’s Blog
I stare at
these old memories
packed away inside
broken picture frames
all the years
of feeling unloved
flood my veins
chronic hate
fills these eyes
and I grow cold as ice
each time
I stare intently inside
at the pain of yesterday
it somehow always
states the case
where I’m the one
to blame
nothing will ever
feel the same
until I drive out this hate
and cast this poison away
Silence
it’s the silence between us
that says everything
that we can’t
and how
at any given moment
you and I exist
in a thousand different places
it’s in these moments
that I wish you were here
to undress me
with your words
and caress my fragile heart
Inhale
I inhale
the very life of you
feeling the rush
of euphoria
through my veins
taking me to a place
that I’ve never been
and I know
in that moment
that I love you
with all that I am
the very essence of me
caught up
in every breath
that fills your lungs
Embers
touch me
with the embers
of your existence
and let me write you
into every poem
that fills these pages
so that you can exist
everywhere that I am
