Poem: Oatmeal

Holding your hands

Reminds me of having

Oatmeal with peanut

Butter for breakfast;

You are as warm as

The milky mixture,

As comforting as its

Smell, and as sweet

As the honey I stir in

To start my day with

A labor of love, and

Oh, how I do

Love you.

Poem: It Rained Today

It rained today, and I wondered

Where I was in the universe,

A speck on a speck on another,

Wishing not to be washed away.

Poem: About Missing You

I binged on writing again, maybe

Because I may have missed you, or

Maybe because our time together

Was so meaningfully spent that I

Seem to see pieces of you around

My world, like in stores that sell

Your favorite brands, or in songs that

You liked to sing too loudly, carefree,

Or even in between the lines of my own

Poems on lonely days like these.

Poem: Catching Up

Can we talk a bit tonight? I’d love to

Hear what’s on your mind. Maybe I

Merely miss the mumbling of your

Soft voice as it drifts through the

Speakers in my often-silent room,

Or perhaps I prefer laughing with you

At every other turn of phrase over

Watching the ceiling fan turn. With

Each whirl that I witness, I wish that

You were with me some more. My

Heart pulls me to you like the tides

Are drawn by the moon, and I hope

To hear from you sometime soon.
