I miss watching your words,
always carefully chosen,
light up my screen.

I miss your laugh,
the way it was slightly different,
when you were talking to me.

I miss your face,
always carefully controlled,
even when I knew you were itching to smile.

I miss you.

Self love

Sometimes love isn’t about loving someone else — it’s about learning to love yourself.
Don’t give up on yourself — you’re the one person you truly need. Stay strong!
When I reach out,
You grab my hand.
When I reach out,
You listen to my words.
When I reach out,
You're there.

That their words make me smile
That their comments made the world seem better
That thinking of them lightened up my day
To all the cool poets on this site

I find myself here
Under the sycamore rain,
Again, loving you.

We talk about the
past like it's a
movie we
watched together.
You liked the
cinematography.
I didn't care for the
cruelty of the
protagonist.

We disagree on the
theme, and every
scene holds different
aspects of
symbolism for us.
I'm not sure I want
there to be a sequel,
despite the good
acting.

Here is a link to my YouTube channel, where I read poetry from my latest book, Sleep Always Calls.  It's available on Amazon.  My two other books are also available.  Seedy Town Blues and It's Just a Hop, Skip, and a Jump to the Madhouse.

Between the spaces we never filled,
a quiet ache lingers—soft, unseen,
like love remembered in a breath.
