The Things I'm Made Of
The atoms that compose me once came from kings and queens, heroes and warriors, lovers and sinners. I understand your desire to bow.

The Unexpected Wonder of It All
I wanted to ink your smile into my skin so it'd never fade. Carve Pablo Neruda's poetry into the sky with plane exhaust. Hold a boombox over my head and blare 80's pop songs beneath your window. But I don't have the money or the resources, so I hope you'll settle for the only things I can manage: three words and a grin.

The Phantom Limb
Sometimes, I'm sitting, and I feel
Really empty and hollow,
Like I'm missing something really important.
Like there was a song I heard once
Or a poem I read
Or something I wrote that I lost.
Like it'll never be enough because there will always be something
That I missed
Or forgot about
And sometimes I think
It's just
You.

The Honesty
So I told you the truth the only way I knew how: with my fingertips tracing syllables and symbols on your skin.

The View
Embraced by nature, I catch myself wondering why the Willow is weeping. Maybe it has seen so much sorrow that it doesn't need a reason anymore.
