nearme

Now and then, I’m reminded of the unique wonder that is inherent to our living, loving, and journey through the number that becomes our days.

And while most travels are the same, others can vary based on age, our place in the world, and even the area where we are born to.

Just yesterday, I made the trip to see my mother, some thirty minutes down the road. Along the way, I passed a place I have overlooked hundreds of times, but this time was different. I noticed a cluster of trees and just as I passed, I realized there was a worn down path – a road (less traveled) that navigated between them, through them.

And just like that, I was at another place of my life. I was 18.

While I don’t for one minute think that ‘parking’ is unique to the south, I think that every place we find love is unique in some way – even if only unique to us (every kiss, the first, the sweetest ÷ the only).

In the south (or at least in my part of the South), we would never spend a Saturday night in the backseat of a car when the option of a blanket of clover beneath and stars above is so readily available.

could I tell you
the truth of this –
of secrets writ to skin
of nights
not left to injury or scar
the memory returning us
not so weary
not so far
to fields where clover blooms
beyond the stars

. . .

moments of forever ~

thatImightdream

how sparse
these fleeting seasons
wherein our silence lies
as dungeons black
was there the martyr fell
confessing
to the almost
every time before
when dreams awoke
with stories of the veil

between the will
for one more day –
the rhythm of our years
is weighted by another
passed in vain
sins denied their pardon
keep me up at night
reason raps
the rusted window pane

wishes
I’ve decided
are rarely worth the risk
cast upon a starless
consequence
a boy I knew
I said I loved –
love him still sometimes
for moments of forever
nothing else makes sense

. . .

as love knew me ~

silencefills

of places
once we tarried –
before
as now again
to know of love
(as love knew me)
a shift
of ancient sands

still
as light
became of word
your voice
to places sweet
made real a song
 without a sound –
my heart within
your beat

of taste –
your name
recalls my lips
your touch
of moonlight glow
showed to me
eternity –
the only one
I know
