explore my home town
eyelashes brushing buildings
make my city yours
Poetry?
There was haar
there was haar in my heart
then from a newly cloudless sky
the sun shone strong again
I see sunflowers
I see sunflowers and I know you will return from the dark
your smile is the welcome of the open door
your voice calms the waves that surge in my heart
breathing in stars fails my spirit no more
the warmth in my belly and I feel no fear
your hand on my shoulder and my home is here
Written by U and me for K
I didn’t see that coming
I didn’t see that coming
I thought and shook my head
but then again
I thought again
they told me love was blind
I feel vincible
I feel vincible this morning
waves crash
my heart and breath come quicker
then I remember
or am reminded
that I am a tiger
a star in the night
whose light never dies
then I remember
that I am a tiger
clear blue skies
clear blue skies take over
in puddles of late summer rain
reflected glory shows the future
I stare and try to see connections
Your words burned
Your words burned.
“We need to talk” scorched,
“It’s not you” set my blood to seethe
and
all those words about finding yourself
were fiery nails through my heart.
One day I hope
a “maybe”, “perhaps another try”
will extinguish flames and salve again the steaming wounds.
Thinking back
One minute your key was in the lock; the next it wasn’t.
One day the sun came out to play; the next it didn’t.
One year you said I was the only one; the next I wasn’t.
Hi there
your message started
my hot tears fell on the screen
a window banged shut
swifts glide
swifts slide
seem to collide
as clouds gather
they wait for cool rain
later
the sun will break through
again
