Moments like rain
dropping from the sky
into my mind
pooling into a dream
marked by the softness
in his eyes
speaking without
breath or sound
yet moving me still
on a thought
left unsaid
yet felt still

I have written about compassion
—love
—understanding
—hope
And these things are there in every
breath that is taken by this person—me
But all too often it is easy to be taken
away be the day’s tribulations
—stresses
—complications
and forget those thoughts
that make me truly remarkable
It is not the surroundings of my life
But the true essence of my humanity
—character
—soul
And [...]

Calmness tempers my ever restless heart
as it resolves itself to move no farther
than its breath’s reach.
Time is the only thing

Perspective
There is a girl;
She sits at a bar;
Ask why;
Know why;
Guess wrong or right
depending on her mood
in that moment,
for this night
she sits and writes
to erase the silence
surrounding her friendships.
As each day someone falls away
and someone draws close.
Each word moving farther
away from the good friend
she use to be.
