So I may know the weight of thoughts,
For both can bend the trees
Yet shy away from being caught.
But nets woven from wishes
Only scatter their direction,
While...
Leave your worries by the shore line,
And run your bare feet through the sand,
Let the water be a soft bed,
When you cannot bear to stand,
Make friends with flying seagulls,
And hold the sun up on...
If you’ve listened close to silence,
I’m sure that you have heard,
The gentle constant ringing,
In the space between two words.
When you really pay attention,

“When I Die”
When I die,
I want to fall in my bed exhausted,
Covered in scars,
Stories buzzing in my head,
Of memories and inside jokes,
From a lifetime of misadventure—
My broken bones...
“If the World was Crazy”
If the world was crazy, you know what I’d eat?
A big slice of soup and a whole quart of meat,
A lemonade sandwich, and then I might try
Some roasted ice cream or a...
From Up Above
And she wakes you every morning
With golden pink hands
And she kisses you goodnight
With her beautiful moonlite dance
And She whispers in your ear,
when the wind decides to blow.
And...
2:36 AM
2 am is for the poets who

Tell me now, how is it fair?
Our lives are just a gasp for air,

“Petals and Promises”
She was the summer’s last sunflower,
Writing a letter to July,
As though one final correspondence,
Would make an easier goodbye,
But already she could feel them,

“May the sea”
May the sea
Set you free.
May the breeze
Keep you at ease.
May the sky

May the sand
Guide you to land.
May the shore
Offer you more.
May the beach
Love you...
