Poem: Watch Me

Watch me wither without you

No more. I have found a peace

Within myself that shows itself

As fire in my eyes. Watch me

Win my own battles without you

And without wondering if you

Will wait for me at the finish line.

Poem: Storm

I shivered at the sound

Of the storm outside

As it shouted and shook

And turned out the lights

Of the world all around

By concealing the sun

Behind heavy gray clouds,

With their heavy gray tears

Draining down one by one.

Poem: Good Times

I found a mood-boosting playlist

Designed, I’d like to think, to keep

My mind off all things you, but

All it managed to do for me was

Remind me of the good times,

When I felt, with you, as though

The world was ours to dance through;

As though the sky was brightened

Not by the sun, but by the glints

Of lovey-dovey smiles; as though

Our hearts would never break

And our love was shatterproof.
