Love music, writing and reading. Some of my poems may be lyrics, others just poems.

the cool breath of dusk
softens the distance remaining
between the dying of the light
& the awakening of dreams

During a partial solar eclipse, look under the trees: you'll see hundreds of tiny crescents on the ground!
It's the pinhole effect: each small gap between leaves acts like a natural projector, casting miniature images of the partially eclipsed sun.

Maybe the goal is not to become unbothered. Maybe the goal is to become grounded enough to feel things without being ruled by them.

we’ll see each other, again
she’ll be smiling. at a lover
or friend or nothing at all. i’ll
recognize her overbite. stare
too long. hope she looks my
way. hope she doesn’t. content
knowing the miles between were
her quiet beginning.

only the lonely
stray and stay up to gaze up
at the moon’s ghastly glow. i
am a part of this cult. this hoard.
this marching band of poets
with words as sickly sweetened
music we offer to the wind.

Today I also missed you,
not loudly, not in ways that ask to be noticed, but in the quiet corners of the day where thoughts linger longer than they should.
I remembered you the way one remembers light after it has left a room, certain it was there, certain it mattered. Yesterday held the same ache, and tomorrow already feels prepared to carry it.
I miss you silently,
in pauses between breaths,
in words I choose not to say,
in moments that pass untouched by sound.
There is no drama in this longing, only constancy. A soft returning.
A memory that refuses to fade, walking beside me through time,
asking nothing, staying anyway.

I don’t know what I’m more afraid of, to see you again or to never see you again. The thought of your presence stirs a storm in me, a tide of longing I cannot control.
Yet the absence of you feels like a hollow room where echoes of your laughter linger and shadows of your touch fade into silence.
Every heartbeat hesitates between hope and fear, between the ache of reunion and the grief of loss. I am caught in the delicate balance of wanting you near while fearing the very moment I might lose you forever.

Some love stories don’t end,
they just stop being spoken aloud.
But you still feel them
in the silence between everything else.

Someday, I will gather the words
I once scattered around you
and fold them into the loose hem of night.
Then I know a strange #conundrum will drift in—
and there, within the language of silence,
our hearts will find their way
into love.

Pungent yearning is where tenderness turns into callused wishing. It makes mischief home to shrill waterfalls fungible with nothing but poetic words over dead matter, & lays whispers on the tumbleweeds drifting through forevers spoken yet ignored. May we elude its lies. #vss365

I don't grasp each word this world speaks
I don't need to
I long for fluency in the language of heart
That hears unsaid
Where a touch hums 'I understand'
People may revel in knowledge
I'm content with naivety
In the amber light of fading July
Choosing fluency of feelings
