About Me





Saltwater
I lay in state,
Shoulders pinned to the mattress beneath the heaviness of my grief,
Her sunshine 93,000,000 miles away,
Still scorching my thoughts,
Remembering her dance made me smile,
Remembering her laughter made me cry,
I wept,
Sobs wracking my body in the darkness,
As I fought the urge to scream,
Gravity drawing water from the wells in my eyes,
Tears spilling down my temples,
My ears becoming salt water reservoirs,
Remembering someone saying,
“It’s funny how time flies!”,
But really thinking,
It's sad how time lies,
And you begin to believe that a few seconds,
minutes,
hours,
days,
weeks,
months,
years,
by themselves,
could keep the saltwater from washing away the sunshine...
For 8 years Cliff and Clair Huxtable had their off-camera drama,
And they’re still in syndication,
Arguing during the commercial breaks...

This Old House
This old house,
All dry wooden planks,
And rusty nails,
Gazing longingly through cracks in the wall's paper,
Across the room at photographs on walls,
Where they used to hang,
Mahogany framed moments in love,
Captured as proof that the house wasn't always in this state,
Doors nailed shut,
Floorboards creaking their displeasure,
Tin pails working overtime,
To catch errant rain drops...
There once was laughter that echoed through the halls,
Its sweet music falling from your lips,
Gliding softly into my ear,
Love's embers alight in the darkness,
Stoking the fires smoldering in our eyes,
Now wind howls through shattered windowpanes,
Whistling a wretched version of a sacred song,
Still, there was once love in this old house
