chances are
i take a chance
on myself
for the first time;
i can remember the bad bets
they were never on the house
someone else’s
& they went bust
not this time
ill gamble on this pair

untitled 18
i see the demons
lurking
behind every devious
thought;
cursing me
reminding me
you can never out run
yourself
lemons
i never worried
just stayed up all night thinking
long Summer evening
long distance relationship
you told me not to worry
about what tomorrow would be like
how we would eat
or how we would pay our bills.
even after you passed;
i always knew
you’d still be looking
over my shoulder
telling me
it would be okay.
2nd date-
i remember
very little;
i loved the way
you carried my memories –
but after a while
i guess
you got tired.
navy blue
at our finger tips
something crystal clear
before man made smog
prospect
it was the light
from over the hills
no clouds; on the horizon
lost & found
i found comfort in the dark
yet it’s your heart that scares me
i lost warmth in the light
but it’s your words that terrify me
our memory; is tainted
by beating lies
founding inessentials
i remember
when everything was put together,
like the lego x-wing
before it crashed;
& fell to pieces.
Any Shape You Take
now that the baby is gone;
i saw your true colors,
& it’s not what i wanted
