Kendell Cochrane

I've made a few beds,
I've layed in them all,
Fell short with a few,
With others, too tall
...

I've been lost in a forest that
I have never been able to recognize,
With every passing day, thick,
Unenchanted fogs of unfamiliarity
...

when I see a tree,
I do not simply walk on by,
I appreciate it's beauty;
for there's more that meets the eye.
...

I've thought about heroin,
The rush I've heard she gives,
The way she makes problems vanish
While seeping into your veins,
...

I do not want
To die today,
That fact is big,
For me,
...

A certain feeling used
To suffocate my thoughts,
Sometimes it still does,
Leaving me in a blank
...

When cats discover
Wind chimes,
It's magic for your ears,
A Chime that wakes
...

I traced the first initial
Of my sur
Through thick,
Weightless condensation,
...

I want to be dissolved,
Lovingly,
Sift me,
searching,
...

Sometimes
I fall to sleep,
Ear pressed against the hardwood
Or charactered tile,
...

Sometimes
I fall to sleep,
Ear pressed against the hardwood
Or charactered tile,
...

You'll be Seventy five,
What a number,
An evolving digit,
But Is that
...

Confessions of love
written onto paper,
remaining blank while
Diving deep into thought.
...

Words spoken in silence
are often meant
for the heart,
or mind,
...

It's been 20 years,
Since I watched you
Sit in gram's garden,
Take the Grand tour,
...

Run away with me,
to this place where
silence swallows
words
...
