Seeing the best in all things I often overlook the obvious While I stand howling at a paper moon The same paper she forms origami versions of my heart I’ve seen dancing under starlight The very temptress that draws my heart Formed from ink and flesh She smiles softly pulling me in with the motion…
I remember it like it was yesterday. I guess in the age of the universe it was, but for us it was months ago. If you’re a regular on my blog or other places I write then you know that I write about all of my failed relationships, dates, and nearly everything else. Jennifer and…
If I were a bird I couldn’t fly as high as I did yesterday Walking Next to you I’ve walked with you before Holding your hand Watching your smile I walked besides volumes of books Next to priceless pieces of art Holding your hand Your smile the only thing capturing my eye I imagine often…
I could run away Sometimes it’s what I’m best at Where would you be? Where would I be? You’d be with someone else and I’d still just be sitting here Writing Some days my heart is a sinking ship Being dragged down by the weight of my own thoughts My own overthinking Fears only manifested…

I often crave the solace in the noise of the city streets Soulless No one knowing me No one caring Downtown Portland, Oregon As I walk I see faces all around me Many I see every day Most I’ll never see again It’s all the same I’m as invisible to them I like it that…
Greeting you in the morning That kiss that stayed on my lips all day The smell of body lingering in my thoughts My day couldn’t pass quick enough Only to lay next to you again Long nights now alone In the bed we shared I wait like a corpse Alone and broken Knowing you’ll never…
