Who would have thought that I deserved a bit of heaven?
The angels must be smiling at what had just happened.
My heart is thrilled at the thought of your existence;
The butterflies in my stomach are fluttering without pretense.
...
You are like a fleeting echo that rings through my soul.
You are like the clouds, so visible
Yet impossible to hold and own.
You are like the air that I cannot live without.
...
You and I have long been friends
We hoped to stay that way until the end.
Our jobs may have kept us apart
But our bond had refused to depart.
...
A body of lies
That’s all there was
Between you and me
At first, I trusted you
...
How do I begin my silent lamentation?
I lack the courage to bring this to your attention.
I tried to write you a poem
One with the perfect words to rhyme,
...
No daggers, bullets, nor blades
No wounds, cuts, nor scrapes
Yet, pain rings through my whole
Grab the hand of a broken soul.
...
Spring is lovely in Orange County.
The parks are well-trimmed and tidy.
The buildings aren’t so tall
The sites are not crowded at all.
