relationships

when we first met,
     i was determined not to fall ...
        look at me now:
          i've lost control--
                of feelings

finely tuned
perfectly oiled
equals precisely right
like a hand in glove
searing moisture
equanimity
feels just right
never been one for kisses
but ...
maybe i've been kissing wrong
like you've been "something" wrong
and instead it's someone
that one
you just might be
simple as that
nothing like it
EVER
before
i get so lost
in the 33
the number
of precision

I know I haven't called
or even taken the time to write
and it seems the interest has died
but that is not the case.

I still hold you very high in my thoughts
and you hold a special place in my heart
in spite of all of this.

I just haven't made much effort
because it seems little comes
from your way.

I just get tired of putting everything out there,

Today I let go ...

I surrendered my pain beneath a downpour in the ebony of the moonlight

Let it envelop the darkness of unforgiven trespasses

As shoulders hunched and body wracked

Moisture of tears masked by drops of rain

Betrayed by the salty taste upon my lips

I chased away the shadows upon my plains that block the light of You
