His love
could only be colored
red
*
Deep, rich
flawlessly solid
steadfast in purity
unmatched by others–fainter, weaker
bold against storms
bright in serene calm
*
Red
was the love
she deserved

I sit here
because you
used to sit here
with me
middle of afternoon
maybe eveningĀ
unassuming place
far from other lives
and other eyes
tiny world
our world
our place
you and me
wine and whiskey
eyes speaking
what our bodies missed
what our bodies needed
knowing the next placeĀ
was where
we’d unleash
what we couldn’t
anywhere else

Slip away
into my skin
under the facade
there for others
find the real me
seductive
sexy
sinful as hell
and ready to burn

This milestone…
never will do again
never have to again
don’t want to again
is freeing
liberating
and downright shout-worthy
as I drink in deep red
grin like a girl with a Valentine
know I was good and very, very good
and now, soon,
will be able to
let it all go
because I know
I made a difference
somewhere
for someone

Haven’t been here for a while
Life and things calling
But words have never stopped
My head awhirl in too many of them
Sometimes I just have to stop
Or I will fall off an edge
And never find myself

Lying in still, sultry summer heat
sounds buzzing
in various tones
songs of flying insects
sweat trickling slowly
down temples
and between breasts
She lay there
naked with nature
and her thoughts
no other human sounds
interrupting
no one else
able to know or hear
her mind
She smiled
indulging in only
her raw self

I don’t know who I am anymore
I lay in bits and pieces
Scattered among all the people I care about
And I cannot gather them into one pile
To see how they fit together
Pieces unwilling to connect
Even though striving to
Like magnets drawn yet resisting
This puzzle of me
Trying and trying to match edges with another
Yet which piece jigsaws with me?
More than one comes close
But that big box sits there
Full of choices
And I try and try and try
Until I walk away
Incomplete
