soul speak
if the language of the heart
is hope
than the language of the soul
is truth–
the heart may lie
but deep down
the soul
always knows.
all apologies
i couldn’t trust your words
so your apologies
never meant
that much
to me.
cold
no amount of wishing
turns your sour wine
sweet
yet i still find myself
drinking until
i am full.
the good life
it doesn’t matter
how good you are living
if you are drinking
from a poison
well.
past and pending
to be able to remember everything
so vividly
is a blessing and a curse—
you can be at the top of a mountain
and the bottom of the sea
simultaneously,
past and presents
only words–
each moment
just a part of the precarious
masterpiece in progress.
time’s arrow
growing apart
but at least
still growing—
so wilted,
so lost,
when you left.
phantom feelings
nothing
ever as vivid
as the memory
of a moment
that’s past
that you can never
get back.
finding home
home
is not
a piece of land
but a place
you hold
in your heart.
hands of time
i remember the days
when happiness
seems like a memory
and the further
i got from it
the further i felt
from myself.
