even after all the losses,
bad guesses, and
sleepless nights
she still adds his last name after hers
to see if it fits

The Last Time
This is the last time
life will come together
this tie that binds
for I can indeed sever
This is the last time
words spoken before
write them down
to never again ignore
This is the last time
regrets so immense
drowning this deeply
‘tis uneducated nonsense
This is the last time
it will not break me
I’ll come out stronger
my mind will rest free
This is the last time
I repeat and restate
for this kind of life
surely cannot be thy fate
This is the last time
tales of a melancholy past
misguided decisions
this time is the LAST

hope
new year, new hopes, new dreams…
stay confident
that your thoughts are true
keep faithful
even when days are blue
question them all
they may be wrong
keep hold of the hope
remain forever strong
love those around
and love thy within
without both
the heart cannot win
melancholy days
will always exist
sometimes you’ll find luck,
an unexpected twist

A New Day, A New Color
bright colors popping
dyes of sunlit tints and hues
bursting and shouting
reincarnated
garden of yearning yellows
and pulsing purples
stained and so splendid
a new day, a new color
deep and rich changes
