Lovely, lovely, lovely;
They say that you are lovely
I see the sparkling in your eyes
...
A mother's love
Wraps around you like the wind,
Invisible, incomprehensible, and inescapable-
Not that you would want to escape
...
I once went to a recital
For Spoken Word Poetry
A young man and woman
...
Maybe I've become too attatched, too entraced,
I can't keep you from my consciouness,
Sleep has meandered and delayed itself
Steeping me in your abscence,
...
My hint was more than that,
My words were less vague than
Had my thoughts spilled out before you
...
If thoughts and troubles were my ocean,
Daily life my mainland isle,
You would be the rock rising bravely
Off shore a quarter mile
...
I don't remember much
About Ivy anymore, but
I know she was my best friend.
...
Torn in half, I spit into the wind
Fully aware of the consequence,
The saliva slapping my cheek
Displacing mascara polluted tears
...
I hear the screams now,
Before, the sound of the explosion
Deafened me.
Now, the last piercing sound
...
What when the paper cuts
Fester and bleed
Rather than sting for a brief moment only?
...
