Eyes Wide Shut

If you don't think love exists...you're not looking at the world with your eyes open. Love resides everywhere just waiting to be embraced. But so many people are waiting for it to come knocking on their door, they end up forgetting to invite it to their pity party. Love starts in your own heart. No one is going to put it there for you.

Can I get a moment of silence? (stupid Kindle)

Fragile Smile

A smile
put on reserve
waiting for the right time
to embrace the delicate truth.
It's shy.

Flyhalf

pride
burns through her veins
as she stretches across
the line with ball clutched in hands. try
awarded.

the absence of color

her white soul ghastly
stained upon her face.
a white tundra of abandonment
for all the world to trace.
the vulnerable white page
that lost all its words
the small white girl
afraid to go towards
the bright white light
echoing her shame
her fragile white mind
remembering his name.

sanguine petals

a wilting rose
blooming from your chest.
a buckle of the knees.
a silence that deafens the world.
a bright red stain
amplifying your frangible soul.
a mouth thick with blood.
you choke on your last words
as your life secrets from within you.

my screams are muted
by the barren breeze
as unanswered questions
linger in the space between us.
our eyes lock,
a lifetime of things unsaid
trapped behind your ineffable iris
pining to be free.
petals of blood
pool around our entwined bodies
as i watch your soul
escape with the wind.

a final choke.
a limp body.
an empty stare.



a bleeding rose
wilting for all eternity.
