my passion
...is to be in the same space with you and have so much air between us.

sometimes lost
Sometimes lost, searching for another way to stand other than with my back against a wall, thoughts spilling into escape. Pushing fear away like so much concrete.

sometimes pensive
Sometimes pensive, like Lao Tzu's butterfly. Is being here a dream, or am I?

sometimes cold
Sometimes I am cold, and it is all I can do to hold my self in, and wait for morning.

I hold tightly what I dream, for what I dream is beautiful, and soon they will become me.

If I could take strands of light, and weave them into fabric, I would make a veil to wrap my face so I could taste light when I breathe.

When the late morning slants across the windows and the city is still: you can almost hear the afternoon's anticipation as the world spins, creaking.

Wait. I hear you, calling. Your voice is the windsong in the trees, and the silence after it is the sound of a thousand cranes leaving for winter.
