Shared Covers

Shared Covers

Guess when you
Get too
Tired
Your
Mind
And
Thoughts
Mix up
Emotions

And when
Warm
Shoulders
Suffice
Even
In the
Darkest
of
Nights
And earliest
of mornings

The
Conversations
Somehow
Mean
More
When
Covers
Are
Shared

The Air Up There

The Air Up There

First class cabins
Resurrected
Thoughts
Ideas
Marinated
Over
Stewardesses
And their
Drinks with
Ice
To numb
The pain

Handshakes
Greeted
With business
Cards
Elevator
Pitches
And booze

Glassware
No pretzels
Full time
Service

High up
Enough
To get
High
Unconscious
Thoughts
Of her
While
Changing
Altitudes
View points
And
Business ideas

But
We grow
Up in
The air
For it's
Different
Up here

Because
Life
Starts at
Take off

and
Ends
When
You
Land

Separation Hurts

Separation Hurts

At the
End of
Nights
Beginnings
 of Mornings
It's
What's
Expected

Relationship
Wise
I mean
Checkins
Facebook
Posts
Parole
Officers

I'd trust
Her
But not
myself

iPhones
Ankle bracelets
Cold
Sheets
soft hearts
and
Half empty
Beds

Corruption
Without
Money
Yet love
Built across
Bridges
States
Countries

The feelings
Alike
Lost
In translation
In my head

My soul
Questions
My opinions
My toughest
Critic

Opposed
To my
Own
Self worth
If not to
Share

Shackled
Though by
Distance

Separation
Hurts
