All those little things
you left behind
are now my
sullen trinkets.
The lost, lonely artifacts of us,
now only meaningful to me.
Month: September 2020
Fogged
Like steam to
my bathroom mirror
you are becoming
fogged over…
And even when I
try to clear your haze…
there’s only a
temporary exposure.
11:45pm
Pitch black
and quarter to twelve,
we walked on the beach
barefoot on shells.
Stars guided
our path to low tide,
the oncoming waves
slowing our strides.
We stood there together
in the frigid ocean breeze…
pausing to take in
all we couldn’t see.

Cheerio
It’s funny to me
how quickly I became
so appealing to you…
And then just as fast…
I became as unsatisfying
as a lonely, soggy cheerio
in a bowl of old, spoiled milk.
Dust
Sometimes I feel like
I am as insignificant to you
as a dust particle
floating through the air.
Then for a brief second
I glimmer from the sun…
And you notice me as
abruptly as I am forgotten.
Taste
You let your tears
patter gently
onto my face like rain…
And then I could
taste the saltiness
of all your sorrow
and your pain.
The Sunset Moon

Audacity
So an amazing woman named Kate Duff (who writes A Thousand Bits of Paper ) has recently started an online magazine. This magazine was created by Kate to promote diversity and to spread inspirational stories which spotlight many beautiful artists/poets/writers/creators.
About a month ago Kate reached out to me and gave me the opportunity to take my poetry somewhere new. Now my poetry has a new place to also call home, Audacity.
Thank you Kate for the opportunity to be part of such a beautiful collaboration of artists. I am extremely grateful and still in awe that you chose me.
Anyways… CHECK IT OUT!!!!!! (Please) 😀 Below I have three options: Read the first issue, Check out Audacity and subscribe :), or view it right here!!!!!
