(2013)
I was like a rain cloud over a small garden and dammit if you weren’t that garden so full of flowers that I fell in love
I grew up in a house built in 1937 long before codes and regulations and sometimes
Everyday I lived out a song written just for you But you could
Hope in another form but no fewer letters and I’ve been hoping for these past eight years so I’ll just keep on
I awoke from a deep sleep and knew the reason was to write I love you
I don’t remember any anesthesia after talking with you but I woke up stitched back
I get my silence in five minute doses before the plane overhead brings me back to earth
I spend my nights wishing on every star in the sky that you are alive and well
Autumn sneaks in preceding dormancy Leaves take on new beauty with nothing left in them but a fa… Individually insignificant
I thought I could drink you away but I had to stop being so drunk on you first
I would write a sweet poem and title it with your name if I loved you at all
Forever seems like so long until I think of all the times spent waiting
If I was once the tallest mountain your love was the wind that eroded me to nothing
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
To put it simply each beat of your heart is a gift that I receive with the anticipation of a child at christmas
