Lost in Time

I'll find you in the golden hour

I see your eyes in the trees

when the world, for an hour, is rimmed with glow

I'll look for you in the leaves.

 

I'll find you in the pink hour

I see your smile in the sky

when the clouds are rosy and candy-sweet

I'll look for your reply.

 

I'll find you in the gray hour

I see your tears in the rain

when the rivers swell and fog descends

I'll look to ease your pain.

 

I'll find you in the black hour

I see your figure in the dark

when streetlamps smirk and when stars wink

I'll look for your bright spark

 

I'll find you in the blue hour

I see your heart in the air

when the world is a silhouette and the moon yawns deep

I'll look and see you there.

  • Escape

    With the curtains thrown wide 

    we see the world gray 

    and we know it's the fault of our own 

     

    Spent far too long 

    bearing crown, sword, and shield 

  • Pen Pal

    I write in pen

    to get comfortable with my mistakes

    to catch all my thoughts

    scatterbrained

    and fleeting

    pens scratch the itch to write

    better than any graphite

    the use of ink before pencils 

  • Where Life Begins

    I never thought I'd be 16

    nor thought the grass would still be green.

    At 5 I met my oldest friends

    who I still talk to now and then.

    At 6 and 7, all through 10

    Nostalgic blurs remain of them.
