The Way You Are What Chocolate Cookies Are To Me

-

balancing act.

-

a strand of her hair knots itself
in the loop of my fingers
almost like a promise
oh i would wish to spend
my only one true life
honouring.

-

often
at new beginnings
i think of
old endings.

-

some things
cannot be dissolved
even in the laudable force of water.

-

things i’ve learned about love from my father.

-

there is a spanish saying:

mi casa es su casa
which means, "my home is your home";
when i say i am in love with you
for the most parts it is about you.
it might look like it begins with me,
but it doesn’t stop until it reaches you.

Why I Don't Like My Father

-

maybe forever was just a tiny moment,
that happened to us each day for a second;
but lived on in the shape of a timeless cloud
drifting from place to place,
so that every time some lovers were to swim
in the cloudy ocean of a setting sun,
they'd see that one particularly odd shaped cloud
and say, 'we can make it as whatever.'

-

we don't talk about love enough.
