NaHaiWriMo - day fifteen

15.
 
i keep coming back
always the same regrets
time to say no
 
*
 
push into the berm
let gravity do the work
shouts of joy
 
*
 
you can’t deny it
everything is a circle
dance with me
 
 
 

NaHaiHaiMo - day fourteen

14.
 
your pockets full
stones worn smooth like gems
my heart emptied
 
*
 
we could never return
words were spoken and doors closed
so many regrets
 
*
 
nothing i needed
candy, pens, hats, cassettes, comics
the thrill of it all

NaHaiWriMo - day thirteen

13.
 
making it count
i fill my day with thoughts of you
breathing in each moment
 
*
 
much needed repairs
the old CPR pocket watch
gone without a trace
 
*
 
it’s like a river
beckoning, beckoning, beckoning
or so the song goes

NaHaiWriMo - day twelve

12. 

so many voices
i could be more insistent 
it’s a choice

*

my hands are dirty
i can’t believe what I’m reading 
stained by the news

*

the china is wrapped
everything packed just so
so fragile

NaHaiWriMo - day eleven

11.
 
late at night
your breathing lulls me to sleep
wish me sweet dreams
 
*
 
exhausted
i fold into your embrace
the rustling of sheets
 
*
 
it’s quiet now
a glass of good whisky
warms my throat
