Look upon us See our scars From battles past Yet, we are the ones that last No false platitudes Told we have bad attitudes

Some nights, you move through The snow, and some nights, the snow Moves coldly through you

Asphyxiating… Until I slipped from your noose Free to breathe at last

Always looking back Not aware what was ahead Then we collided
My gaze focused out While yours always inward turned Thus, you don’t see me
You were my keystone The rock upon which I built But your heart … sandstone
“You're so prolific” “Yes. I have a ghostwriter.” “Grandma stays busy”
You were the center Creation revolves around Then she came along
Come let's sit between the candles and dance under the drizzle of rain Let's embrace the star of the sky and dream of what the moon is

Your beauty blossoms When the contents of a book Become parts of you
I long for you For you are tenderness And you are safety And the oasis of my heart when it gets tired I long for you with the longing of the deserts
Love, a whisper in the gentle breeze, A tender touch that puts hearts at ease. It blooms in silence, soft and true, A light that shines through skies of blue.
