nudge of soul
i remember my mother once told me
that when you’re laying down,
and hear a heartbeat
that doesn’t quite match with yours,
it was your soulmates heartbeat
so intertwined that you can hear it,
no matter how far away
i didn’t believe her
i knew id never find love
sure, i heard that little pounding
my ear drumming in rhythmic patterns
once could

used that title before]

This was the place that he’d chosen to go
They do a great starter of avocado
Everyone ordered the same starter there
And he'd always wink and say

The Nudge
Desolation smoothed at the calming of the swell,
begrudgingly accepted solitude, vacationed in Hell,
nails are sore and broken from the scratching of the well,
strengths gained through weakness? Only time can tell.
Inhalation of mist so that I may envision,
a clarity, a beauty, an historic masochistic decision,
a heart, a soul, birthing from an optimistic excision,
building blocks erected,

Gust of playful wind
nudged me with flurry of leaves.
Childhood memories

leaving me in state of bliss.

They sit in the long grass
Cuddled up to smooch

He looks so dejected
That’s not what he wants
He is hungry inside
His breath comes in short pants
He tries to coax her
With a nibble on her ear
But she’s having none of it
He’s going without, I fear.
Bet your minds

faces appear, wild and fey,
it is you who they beckon and await.
You close your

Overdose the Nudge
Dodging bullets now
feel the vibe
No one here submissive
buy protection
Protection gifted to me
delicate shade of difference
Ride the storm
awarded enemy survive
still my memory stain alive
aperture - powerful capture
divine template
aside in minds shrine
my inner child follows deep within
tears fall - fall gently
hands cupped - gently in they spill
all tears retreat to safety - mirror in the strong...
Memories of
