Touch me
Blindly
Let your fingers
Find me
My face
My skin
Let the beauty
Seep in
Sweaty palms
Night lights
Let our souls
Ignite
Through the fire
And the flames
Our inferno
Can't be tamed
Your touch,
Your feel,
Is it something?
Is it real?
I need more
I crave you
I hope your touch
Wants my touch too.

We've never been here
To this unknown,
Uncharted territory
Yet, with your hand in mine
I feel familiarity
As if I have a map,
Or an inner compass
That guides me home
No matter how far
I may travel
No matter how lost
I may become

Smoke billows from underneath my car as I press my foot on the gas.
I am going.
I don’t know where,
But I am going there.
I don’t know if my destination
Is a place on this earth,
a place in my mind,
Or a place in your heart,
But I’m going.
Wherever that may be,
I’m going.
I hope to see you soon,
With your wide eyes,
And your free spirit.
I don’t know when I’ll be back,
Or if you’ll be waiting,
But if you leave
I hope you find home
Somewhere,
or in someone.
Do not be scared moon child,
Let fear guide you,
and you will find yourself in the loneliness.

Too close to touch,
yet too far out of reach
Day 166, The way you are

There aren’t any more P.S I love yous,
or those overly drawn out voicemails
asking if I wanted Chinese food or sushi.
The only reminders I have of you
are couch stains from lo mein,
And cavities in my bed where our bodies would be.
We were always intertwined
And now I can’t occupy the space,
The crater that was our collaboration.
All I have left of you,
The only factor that’s growing,
infinitely,
Is the space in between us-
The gap of time between where we once were,
And where we are now.

I am trying to heal
and keep myself together,
but you ripped holes
Into my soul
and I lost a part of me-
forever.

Special moments we don’t appreciate as much as we should:
Touching someone’s hair
Get your hair touched
Belly laughing
Pillow talks
Ignorant bliss
Looking at the stars
Sunrises and sunsets
Cuddling with someone and morphing into the same being/mega human
Helping an elderly person cross the street
Moving
Traveling
Physical, mental and emotional exploration
Holding someone’s hand
Drinking water when you’re parched
Chasing after the ice cream truck
Getting caught in the rain
…. and then kissing in it
Reaching the peak of a mountain
Getting “a high” when you love what you’re doing, (or who you’re doing ;)
Drinking on the beach
That warm, fuzzy feeling
Helping someone who is truly thankful
Holding a baby
Genuine and loving eye contact
Crying tears of joy
Making love with the person you love
Silence and self reflection
Growth, integrity, and wisdom
And lastly,
appreciating the little things when the big things in life disappoint you.

If you ever read
any of my poems,
you would feel like
you already know them.

No,
I can’t say that something is wrong. Nothing is wrong,
but nothing feels right, either.

You are in every single line of my story,
you linger in the gaps between my fingertips,
you exist in the fragments of time between heartbeats,
Your dust remains on my old shelves and book cases,
and oil stains on walls remind me of where our bodies were.
You may have left me,
but there will always be
pieces of you here,
in my heart.

She was a mess,
a walking catastrophe,
a nightmare of a person,
yet a dream to me
She was a loner,
I must confess.
People only loved her
when they saw her undress
She never saw me,
but I watched from afar.
She had her own orbit,
she was a shooting star.
She was certainly strange,
as odd as they come
I think I could learn from her
and all she has done
One day I asked her name,
I said "Hi, I'm Julia"
She said her look is a cover,
"don't let the outside fool you"
She sat next to me
with a beer in her hand,
then she told me to chug it
and we never talked again

You are my sunrise.
Just when I think
nightfall is an all
encompassing
and permanent state,
there you are
with your brilliant rays
of ambient light,
constantly reminding
me that the indigo
sheets coating the sky,
are merely
temporary.

You speak quickly
With pointless banter,
Your never ending
And incessant chatter.
Yammering along
With another spiel,
You’ll never realize
What silence can reveal.

The world is vast,
Yet here we are
Looking at the sky
At different times
From our own eyes
Never knowing if
My sky looks anything
Like your sky
His sky, or her sky
Maybe someone is
Seeing the same sky
And wondering if
Anyone else out there
Sees what they see
Perhaps this is
Your soulmate,
Looking to challenge you
Without changing you

When I look at you
I see who you are now
I want to know your story
What, when, if, why and how
I wonder about your home
The place you used to live
How long you played with toys
When you were a little kid
If your parents read you books
Every night before bed,
When they stopped saying goodnight
And kissing the top of your head
Why are you the way you are
With your curves and sharp edges
What stopped you from jumping off
Sixty foot tall hotel ledges
You had one hell of a journey
That is a known fact
But you cannot forge onward
Without ever looking back
I want to see your spirit
Where you end and you begin
Tell me your darkest secrets,
Show me love and let me in.
