Baking Caramel
Every time I tasted us
’twas only bitter…
Permanence
My love—
Does not have shape…
From Me
Like the stars you
Keep me curious…
A Rumination
I had known entire months
With him…
Unhappy Endings
You—
Are all I learned…
‘til Next Time
I potted plants for every
New name you gave me…
Your Ignorance
I’ve loved you hopelessly
Purposefully, unconditionally…
Foreordained
I made it to you bleeding.
But what if I didn’t…
This Morning
I step outside into the balcony
The trees are a gangrenous green…
Circuit Breaker
Our fragile hearts can’t take it,
Overload. Overload. Overload…
Failed Haiku #1
I like your music.
It becomes a part of me…
On Contact
Does your skin even remember
Me?
Untitled
Men with men.
Ick. Ick. Ick…
Flower-Bearer
We sat in the same place each day,
Routine was part of her life and mine…
Acceptance
The secret is
You have my heart…
Touch-me-not
Each pore of my skin
Births a new flower…
Fleeting Things
How could you judge
What’s dead?
New
Keep it together.
Maybe even tape…
Toxic
The cigarette smoke
Is like you.
On Blooming
Because only you
Breathe new life.
