An In N Out Dreary

In memory you are lost

As I second guess the cost

Of sickness spreading faster

Unmitigated disaster


Dwelling on those winter days

Brand new love a dizzy haze

Walking far into the night

Knowing we were quite the sight


In the timepiece of my heart

Hoping something new will start

Waiting til the stars align

For you again to be mine

Poems

Subterfuge

Stars dissipate above and below.

I’m watching you move,

silently, now.

Horizon ticking by,

violet-orange bruise,

tender to the touch and yet.

You make it a habit to revisit those colors,

hoping to close this distance,

resistant to you.

The ache subsists,

I’m set adrift,

river-dark bleeding I’m

dreaming of you.
