Whatever guided you and I first seemed to be simple chemistry, tiny atoms immediate and forever, seizing one upon one another. Our secrets helplessly spilled, not every one of them at first, we were too careful then at what we could relinquish even though we wished to just give...

The Moonshine

"Let me tell you about the sun and the moon..."

 The sun falls for youThe moon falls for meIt gets sad knowingThe sun kisses youThe moon knows the warmthThe sun's presence beside youThe cold it gives in her absenceKnowing you'll wait for her comingLoving you is like going to the...

Clinquant: glittering as gold; glittering with tinsel; showily ornate I see you from a distance,Standing by the cinquefoilWith golden circlet upon your head. Cleanse me with your clemency,And let me see your heart,As I see your glittering soul. Let clarion sound,Hear the coloratura,Coalesce...

The Venetian Map

""...for she had eyes and chose me." ~ William Shakespeare"

You'll sail through my blood, the first time I've ever been so entirely consumed, an exotic element to you as you pulled me away from monsters As if the telling of those tales spilled war's memory from me. There will be no solidarity to me, love, no origin...

I Wish I Never Met You

"A silly, little poem by a silly, silly girl"

I wish I'd never met you,I wish you weren't still here. I wish I didn't have these thoughts,I wish you'd disappear.I try to toughen up,And pretend like I don't care.But the truth is, I still think of you,In my mind, you're...

Then There Were Two

"When you finally get what you have been dreaming of..."

I walk alone alongThe sandy moonlit shoreWishing, dreamingLonging for something more The full moonShines brightly aboveAlmost mocking meHere without my love Always so farSeemingly forever apartFrom the wonderful manWho holds my heart Listening to the wavesCrashing against the rocks belowI wonder, will I...
