It's still hard

Have you ever wondered why
some people, places, & memories
seem impossible to let go?
It's because at one point
in time that was your
whole life.
I still can't let go
of my sunshine and Iowa.
Maybe if they just
hadn't tasted so **** sweet,
maybe if the feeling wasn't
something words can't describe
then maybe,
my heart could just
skip over those months.
But I still wonder what
would have been,
if I actually ran away
with him
last summer,
if you had decided
to stay.
The only answer I don't have
is how to free myself
from people I will
never see again.

I sit alone
The sun beats down it's heavenly warmth,
An angels breath that does not touch me.

I sit alone
You answer my call but the miles between us cannot be measured,
In metric or imperial,
And will not be breached by our muted conversation.

I sit alone
Cardboard pizza and cola
Do little to ease the turmoil within,
I miss you,
You smile,
Your face,
Your love.

I sit alone
Even as the world sits with me.

I sat, eager to hear what you had to say.
I watched, the tears welling up in your eyes.
I wept, as you let everyone see you.

You are the most beautiful chameleon I have ever met.
And I know the significance of your sobs.
You let everyone in.

When I told you I envied your courage,
that wasn't a lie.
Because what you did today was so brave.

So thank you.
Thank you for letting us in.

It was an honor.
For the beautiful girl who may not know how much I love her.

Lips as red as
     A rose,
In the height of
Summer's heat.

Heart as dead as
     The leaves,
In the waning of
Autumn's fall.

Skin as cold as
      The snow,
In the quiet of
Winter's night.

Mind as fragile as
       Seedlings,
In the dawn of
Spring's rebirth.

You make me feel things
I have never felt before
