Through windows,in wishing wells,whispering in the wind…that’s where I find you.
In that wounded place,buried betweenmy ribs and letting go,I miss you.
I was just an option.Blown easily to piecesand offered to the skyby the sweet laced painupon your lips.
I can’t love anymore.Except for you…I love you so much it hurts to breathe.
Bridge burned from end to end,and I don’t miss you anymore.You delivered silenceI’ve birthed freedom.
You are the poemthat sticks in my throatteaching me to whisperwith the voice of my heart.
I’ve never seen beauty so devastatingas in the linesthat trace our hopeand fall from the stars.
Steep fall to the groundshatteringlike clay pigeons missed by bad shotsand unsteady hands.
Broken.As I search for hope,In the same eyesI lost it.
I build boxesand place them at your feet,to measure the distance between dreams and reality.
I bleed to un-break you,un-mending me.I fall to save you…now who will save me.
I balance you on the end of my pen.Teetering between loveand letting go.
Birthing hope from the madnessthat perches on the fenceof our once perfectdreams.
