Landing safely from a fantastic flight 

My beating heart can't take this anymore
The moment...

Au revoir oh perilous freedom...

Since pledging my troth
to the missus July 25th, 1996

Oh, I can faintly remember
Last years' frigid December

We were like burning embers,
Kindling our fires of kindness
We were swimming in errors

I There’s only a few things I take seriously 
One of them is writing furiously 
Cleverly spinning verses 
Inked in cursive 
Certainly no stranger to adversity
Head nodding
Word dropping

Versing with an urgency
Invasive with my...

If I died today March 2nd, 2020...?

No matter unfulfilled dreams never came true,
nevertheless yours truly doth gladly bid adieu,
where repurposed afterlife (mine) atomic brew

Those diamonds - they shimmer anew
In your forest eyes...out of the blue...
Elegance and erosion collide in my cranium
Leaving me a missing, numb crumb, succumbing to the feeling of numb

From dust to ashes,
We see flashes
We see...

Give me bliss
Give me...

Passion and love
By Michelle Morris

Passion and love so often confused
Only time reveals the roads we choose...
