you,
my inspiration behind the words I write
twisting my heart in all directions
stretching at the pressure of your hands,
your dangerous hands.

journey
writing these thoughts
as they come to the surface.
bobbing in the water,
slowing long enough
to catch my breath.
unfolding much more,
as I wrestle with the now.
a journey to lighten the load
by seeking levity within the metaphors,
making light what once felt so burdensome.

one way
you make me feel that I have a chance
at this thing we are looking for,
and when I try
you quickly make me realize
that I never really did.
on a one way road
headed in the wrong direction.

unreciprocated love.

impatience
time carries on,
so do the shadows behind us
becoming larger as they trail.
forgetting that,
what lies ahead dwindles in contrast.
—
moments of fulfillment
failed to be enjoyed
at the hands of impatience
for what was to come.
—
now left with history,
mere memories to be called upon.
no match against the gravity of life.
