Poem: Breeze

Daydreams of you drift

Into my mind like the breeze

That rustles the curtains

As it welcomes itself in.

I have finally found peace

Enough to close the windows

And let my thoughts of you

Be whisked away by the wind.

Poem: Earth

Your silly grin reminds me

Of the easy beauty of this world:

The sun with its unapologetic glow

As it shares its warmth with people

As it watches them live and grow;

The stars with their quiet sparkle

Despite being surrounded by darkness

Because they know that every glimmer

Inspires those who watch from below;

Flowers like those that we watched

Grow together from a packet of seeds,

Which take some sprinkles of water

And sunshine and bloom at having

All that they need. I look at you

And remember what I love about

This world; I look at you and feel

So connected to the Earth.

Poem: Watch Me

Watch me wither without you

No more. I have found a peace

Within myself that shows itself

As fire in my eyes. Watch me

Win my own battles without you

And without wondering if you

Will wait for me at the finish line.

Poem: Petals

I did my best to wander

Without you on my mind

But found pieces of you

In the petals of flowers

Along the sides of roads,

Which reminded me of

The delicate moments

That we spent together,

Blooming in the sun

Before our petals fell

One by one, and our

Hearts crumbled apart.

Poem: Back

I’ve wandered ways away from here

But one day tumbled back.

It’s strange to be with you so near

After letting go of our past.

Caterpillar, you

Are stronger than you think. Soon

You will spread your wings.
