She lost her #lambent sky eyes
in the crush of still life.
She could see it,
pursed behind irises—
a dying speck of sun, shivering.
She tried to pluck it from a memory,
but like the ghosted flicker of stars,
it was already light-years away.

My #soul speaks in riots
quiet though they may be.

Can you hear it?

Or is it but a whisper
a cacophony below a summer’s green,
a storm folded in brooding sea.

Or am I but a firefly
stealing kisses from the sun?

He unlaces silk petals,
tracing her frame,
charging breaths,
turning words to currents.

The soft of her eyelids,
the slow rise of her chest,
the crescent moon of her curves.

Stems of fire #drizzle from her navel,
his name spelled in embers
beneath her skin.

When I dream of you,
I’ll no longer feel the #heartfelt tether:
magnetic, beautiful, untamed.
I’ll hear your words
shaped from the demons in my chest.
I’ll circle the scars on my skin
in dark searing ink,
a reminder that love can burn.

We don’t need to share blades of grass to walk side by side.
Fear and desire dress us in the same
tattered masks.
Your fingertips find my scars,
and, beneath your soft gaze
I lie #unadorned.
You give me your pale blues and caged crimsons,
and we bloom in a new shade of pain.

searching for you in clouded panes
folding my loneliness into a kiss
I slip it to the mourning doves
flying west
did it reach your lips?

She knew she wasn’t meant for this world when she held the hand of the willow.
She searched for her place,
wandering moons and forests,
#spooking neither shadows nor the living.
She became a trail of lone footprints
dissolving
beneath
the buried heart of the oak.
