If you’re looking
For a place to rest
There’s a loveseat
Inside of my heart

A Couplet For My Future Wife
You’re the queen
Of my foreverdom
Why We Failed
You cannot build
a relationship
out of
wood.
Better yet
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.
Have You Written This Poem, Too?
Where all the words
Are the same … and
Nothing comes out but:
I love you I love you
I love you I love you
I love you I love you
?
Temporary Creation
When we parted
You said we would
Become nothing
Yet from nothing
Came something
old and new
borrowed blue
In layman terms:
A sorrow for at least one
Though maybe for two
Can’t Meditate
I can clear my mind of
Everything but
YOU
Conscious Uncoupling
It was an easy task to forget you:
I simply remembered you.
(Another) Line
Words sound better when you’re near
My Love
I thought I knew
The color and weight
Of gold until I held you
Bloomless
Our love should have
Been a flower in bloom
But it was one letter off
B o o m!
