Sharing is Caring

I'll never Share
What I have
to Say
Rather imposing

Orange juice
in the morning
Simple enough

After last night
After we
Just met

Shaving off
the Smoke
I'll drive
 You to
Starbucks

As we sit out
Side
Enjoy
Lattes
Or some other
Coffee
Dry at least
My taste

And
Send you
on
Your way

Her Tattoo

Don't Scream
Ruin
This imperfect moment

Because you're
Breaking Up
We're breaking up

This disaster
The words
From your
 lips
Don't make sense

well They
Do
But I don't
Want to hear it

So scream
All you want
I'll miss it

Especially
your tattoo
I always
Admired





Sentimental Letters 

TwoDays
Two Weeks
TwoMonths
Two Years

I guess
Breaks are enough
Miles away
Breaking course
Record
Path

Well
I send letters
Sentimental
But 
Meaningless
In the words
I write
Worlds
Apart

Thoughts alike
Because
We grew up
All in the
Same
Next door

Our lives
Planned out
Before I was
Four
But I planned
It with  you

Now the
Only thing
planned
Is not having
The plan
And
Your
Too far
Away

Deep Drifting

Deep Drifting

And
She has to
Know
Knowing
That the
Tide goes
Away
Sometimes

And doesn't
Come back
But the sun rises
Bringing back
The tide

The want
Still rides
High
In the tide
As if
Only now
Further
Drifting
Off
Deeper

Into
Waters
Uncharted
Too deep
To tread

No land in
Sight
No return
Too hard
To swim
Back

Shallow
Waters
Never seemed
So shallow
As I was
Once

And drifting
Beyond
Search lights
Radio signals

Hoping
Only one
To
Drift
Back

First Dates

First Dates

I dress
Modest
As if not
To give away
Myself

But I come
Off
Complete
Whole
No strings
No frays
Clean shaven

Dinner
Drinks
Appetizers
Conversation
Paid for
By good looks
And hopes

And not the
Hopes
Of sleeping
Although
Both
Sexes
Wish upon

And numbers
Swapped
That blonde hair
I guess
I guess
That's why
I can't
Get
Her out

Sadly
Courtesy texts
Rather
Smiley faces
Explaining
Tardiness

Only to
Follow the
Rule
Two texts
And no replies
Signaling
The end
Of
That
That first date

NW Apartment

NW Apartment

Signing
New leases and
Signing away
Life for a year
Well hard
Earned money
Spent
Too much
For too little
Space

But
Living
In the city
Rather closer
To her
Well
For her
Not to
Know

Parties
Thrown
Neighbors
Grown
Close
Unlike
Past aquaintances

But
Unspent
Minues
Waking up
To catch
The sun
Rise
The city
Burning

For Her

That NW
Apartment
I still
Pretended
I was in college

And where
I met
Her
 Memories
I'll never
Forget
But take
with Me

Forever
In the city
Forever
The
NW Apartment

Your Hand In Mine

Your Hand In Mine

There
Are no words
For the Deepest
Regrets
We regret

For the mistakes
We pile
In a
Corner
Hidden
From
Sight

Yet
Every
Morning
We wake
 Up
Breathing deeply
Deeper
Than the
Previous
Day

From exhaustion that
Doesn't add up
To the
Thought
Process
Processing
Right now

Restarts
Don't exist
Rather
Each
Day
Restarts
Life

Yet we
Don't forget
Only
Just grow
Days
Older
Wiser
Than the previous

To further
Put ourselves
Ahead
Because
Going back
Isn't
Part of the
Plan
