Missing the forest of tomorrow, for the trees of today;
I loved him in the places where the ground was steady…

Rise above the water,
let forgiveness set us free
Our love will be a beacon,
the lighthouse on the sea

Let’s break bread with the broken,
’cause here’s what I’m hoping,
that our love will be kind and enough…

Give in to Love,
Give up on Fate.
You’re right where you should be;
Not a moment too late…

Your father’s life teeters on the cusp of death
And the woman who loves you grows tired of your (according) “mood swings”
We continue to hope for recovery…

On the day she said she was proud of him
and no longer wanted to hide their love,
He quit…
because
there were too many other pretty girls

Raw, pulpy heart,
skinless body ripped away.
Maya of soul’s existence
shed in salty tears.
Compassion and
Forehead Kisses
Comforts of a naked soul
Healing in His embrace

As he burned their bridge,
Her cremated compassion,
was washed away
When he drowned their love,
She surrendered
to his forceful nature,
Embellished the oceans
with her bioluminescent amber
and golden flecks
As he buried their truth,
within his chest,
Her raining forgiveness
flooded his headstone heart
Time-speckled echoes
in their fault-line canyon,
His and Her Remains
