Bittersweet Reverie
My soul's eyes look upon the past,
and see hers meet mine for the first time;
I watch as our love's die is cast,
as the bells signaling our fates chime.

I watch as the fires within us ignite,
as...

Premium Member The Unopened Letter
The letter stays sealed within the envelope unread and faded 
Bringing neither hope, nor memories blurred or jaded 
The day it came I could not know
Which destiny the words would hold.
Out of fear I refused to break...

Addicting Yet Contradicting
Love can be so addicting
Feelings can be so Contradicting

The girl sat up at night
a mountain of tissues by her side 
trying to wipe away the memory of him
All the happy memories

"What did i do wrong?"
She yelled
A mixture of anger
and sadness

Stupid Faith
100 miles
It's pretty far 
Feels like a loss
Not far by car
But Too far for a rock to toss

The deadening silence of your voice
Slices to my core, it's a salty wound
Made worse by your choice

Than never to have loved at all?
I have lost the battle between my...

Echoes of Celandine (Winter Jazz)
She was the coolest chick I never knew,
with hair of black and eyes of blue;
like, I'd watch her as the sun set down,
she held the breath of the whole damn town.

"It’s better to have loved and lost, 
then to never have loved at all."

on how the loss occurred.
Was it something that 
eventually faded away 
or did it end...

in blind faith—daily— we take a chance...

we are born knowing nothing—everything learned will be taught
even still—best lessons...

The love, the unfathomable for me. 
Peeking through glass, from the

So long deprived and, suddenly
inundated. There is beauty in the
