A draft and a first week down
Wheels simmer on hot ground
Wedding rings came in the mail
Can this be real, can this be now
I’d like to keep this life around
8.4.19
Sit in bed
look at rings
Wonder if you
did go too fast
Or not enough
when we only
have so much
time in the end
8.3.19
Dive into a story you’ve written five times
Burn salt incense to ward past traumas
Make sense of the world in your own way
Need a little crazy to get through the day
7.31.19
I never realized
trust is an active choice
a decision daily made
in surrender to fate,
to hate, to death
perchance to love
like lightning before
thunder waiting for
the rain to wash
our hearts away
7.23.19
If it all ends horribly
we should be alright
if we can sleep at night
