Waiting on a yellow bird

“Maybe we will be separated physically, but you will still be with me in my heart. I’m not letting you go,” he said.

This was one of those moments that almost never happens. The kind you scoff at in movies, because the actuality of a man, looking at the reflection of the tears streaming from your eyes and saying such a thing, is so far from reality its laughable.

Except my life was always far from reality, and the Nicholas Sparks story of my livelihood continued to write itself.

So I just let the faucet of my eyes drip dry, and pressed my lips against my future.

My boyfriend just sent me this.
I am forever grateful to have such a person in my life.

This is the last photo we ever took together. I still think about you every day and wonder what you would think about the person I’ve grown to be in the few short years you’ve been gone. I wish you could be there at my graduation this summer. I wish I could see your face when I get my degree. I wish I could hear you tell me how proud you are of me.
I miss you, mom.


I love you brad!

Everyday I wonder what I am going home to. If there is anything to go home to? It all seems like nothing now.

“Promise me you will wait.”

Our bodies were frozen into the paralyzing state that comes after the most intense affairs of physical affection.

“I’m going to work the hardest I can,” he said.

My hands found a place inside the webbing of his and my palms collapsed into the glue of his sweat where I found a home. 

I let each drop of his sentence erase my festering doubt before it could reach the electricity of my mind and I set sail to the place that comes right before a dream.

journal rambles

I am living in the cocoon

of a cradle. The tin can

at the end of the string

to your heart. 

Time passes to my looming

demise and I stay still

with the sand in a books

telling spine.

I exhale you, I inhale us.

A world tossed down the alley

towards a tough crowd of pins and I watch the spin.

away we go.

I ran across the globe to find myself and instead three beautiful people found me. I feel so lucky. I feel so happy.

To taste inspiration from the words of love, and friendship and family all in one gulp is a fortune to behold.

There will come a time you’ll see. With no more tears, and love will not break your heart but dismiss your fears.

Mumford and Sons

How funny it is

to be without a word of

disdain rolling off my tongue.

To free of the bitter taste

that was to in be in love.

To awake, drunk from

the beauty of your radiance,

as I am a noodle in your presence 

and in your thought.

Hope
can be
found in
the smallest

places
if you only
remember
to hang on
tightest
when you
want to
let go
the very
most.
