There is a girl and I love her and I have loved her since the beg… Or so it seems to me as I only became conscious
Everyday brings a new death in three words give or take Some days I drown
Everyone sees god in a different light but I was born without eyes
All that I know how to do is write about death without dying and write about life
If I was once the tallest mountain your love was the wind that eroded me to nothing
You were the wind beneath my wings but I was Icarus so all I did
I grew up in a house built in 1937 long before codes and regulations and sometimes
There is poetry in nature better left to be spoken wordlessly by the breeze
If nature were so flattered by poems written with itself in mind as people are we would be moving mountains
I get my silence in five minute doses before the plane overhead brings me back to earth
I wrote this while thinking of you so I guess you could say this poem is eight years in the making
Everyday I lived out a song written just for you But you could
To put it simply each beat of your heart is a gift that I receive with the anticipation of a child at christmas
Everyday I visit the only writers block I know to hone my words and wit and help them cut deeper into the skin
I hope this is postmarked before my death certificate is dat… but you’ll know why if it is or if it isn’t If you get this in time
