File me under: battled, loyal, hopeful
Sometimes it’s important to think about how we want to be remembered, because it helps us go toward something higher. Try to divide negativity into something positive, because, after all, it takes two negatives to make a positive (according to mathematics). I want a plus sign above my head in the end.

A Couplet For My Future Wife
You’re the queen
Of my foreverdom

I have no words

Only broken images:
Burned bridges
Fallen trees
Slanted flowers
Clouded light
Why We Failed
You cannot build
a relationship
out of
wood.

You cannot
build a relationship
out of
wood and water.
Eventually
the water infuses
the wood and
turns it into
a pile of
warped
mold and mildew.
We built our relationship
out of wood and water
and that is why
we failed.
Crystal Balls
In my possession I have
A pair of crystal balls
Would you believe that
Sometimes they can predict the future
Upward to nine months?
