Poetry Blogs (i miss you)

All that I can do

Is sit slack jawed 

 And picture you,

A vision of kindness

Nurturing us with

Strive to complete and                                  become

From clouded dreams

Of watching you be.

How beautiful you are to me

How you inspire me to keep going

How every time I get the privilege

of hearing your voice

my soul flutters to your cadance?

You have healing powers beyond your knowledge

Is it ok, will you get ma...

Take in those gulps
Those long, patient breaths. 
the shuddering, creaking reminders,
flowing through empty halls
carrying with it
a salted, stinging brine
called retribution;
exaltation thru exhalation.

a hush
a loosening of eyelids tightly shut
running blood, piping hot
thru cooler humors, once stung
by memory, we are a mercy
to ourselves, forgetful fools
benign, in the burning f...
