it's not the
eggs or milk
or bread
that I'm after
it's the sound
lonely
is quiet
and when
the silence
screams
I must
fill it

Literature
stop running and just look.
imagine this,
we're lying in bed
bare chest to bear chest
all warm skin and racing hearts
i can feel every curve,
every smooth plane
of your naked body
i'd stay like this forever
my face nuzzled into
your collar bone
my eyes tightly shut
your soft breath on my hair;
safe.
picture this,
we're sitting on my bench
its cold and you have your arms around me
whispering "warm up babe, warm up my love"
the stars are out just for us,
my legs are over yours
with a blanket tightly around us
i'm smiling and you're whispering
secrets into the pink shell of my ear
telling me "i'm falling for you, miss may.
i'm really falling
Literature
living in trains

her feet felt like train wrecks,
like water left on stovetops.
burnt, defeated,
she’d washed away
the sun stains,
and stacked stars in glass bottles.
she found silver lining
in her mother’s charcoal-tipped hair.
spun it in her fingers,
because maybe
she wasn’t burnt pages or washed-up sun,
so she’d dance to quiet music
at the tip of her tongue,
with silver hair and iron feet,
toes pointed, hair free.
Literature
Falling
You say you wear your emotions on your sleeve
But baby, I don't think you can see
The heart I have is ten stories up,
On the edge and ready to jump
Without a thought, without a care
Because it believes you will be there
Ready to save me before I hit the ground
I don't think it realizes that you're not around
There's no way to stop it, trust me I've tried
All that's left is to hang on for the ride
The jump leaves me breathless; then I start to fall
And I wonder if the ground hurts, if I hit it at all
Maybe he'll come, maybe he knows
The news broadcast could have interrupted his show
He'll be my hero and save the day
But deep dow

It seems you haven't been here for a while, but I just wanted to thank you for being so supportive of me several years ago in what was an extremely difficult time. I really appreciate your kindness, and you remain one of the most talented and genuine poets I know.
