watching youi love watching you,
when your eyes are far away and the corners
of your mouth turn up slightly - smiling
at some old memory or private joke

and i, quietly looking down,
smile too; sharing in
your secret happiness

but always, something shakes you to awareness
and your eyes focus, looking around
to draw your paper closer. and i
break a little more in knowing
you cannot be happy for more than a moment,
eternally stuck in your far-away universe.

maybe you'll come down
and notice me someday?
to write for youi wanted to write a poem for you.
so i sat down,
quietly - pen in hand -
and wept. because i cannot
contain the ocean in a paragraph,

i can't shape your eyes
in a stanza. and even
if all the world's birds were singing,
it still would not compare
to the symphonies of your kiss;

and this makes me sad!
through wild and happy fields
i've ran, only to discover:

tears can be captured,
but love is always free.
just pretendingyou're just pretending
when you kiss me, and the
sky breathes softly down
on your eyelashes.

when you glance quickly to the side,
decide not to look me in the face.

i will never re-wear that
polka dot dress or wish
i was a street lamp - because
sea-salt stains are
extremely hard to wash out.
minutesI don't remember the minutes
the seconds
the day you died.

All I can feel
is the phone, crashing
hitting the floor. The same phone
he always called me on -
breaking, as I broke.

Nothing but
wood floors
in a house I can no longer see.

I wonder what he see's and smells out there? My two cats look all the time but are afraid to go outside because they have the best life indoors I guess. Nice image here.
