She almost died once.
Joked on the plane
to the nervous man next to her…
“Don’t worry, I’ve already had my near death experience.”
I watched her laying there
determined to wiggle her toes
helped her shower
laughed with her
“nothing over five pounds!”
then flew halfway across the world
fleeing from my own insecurities
and left her…
alone.

So damned
determined
going through life alone in her eyes
with other’s love

blindly bruising hearts

and over looking loved ones

permeating her icy interior
behind glass eyes
and her distracting smile…

from the sudden shut out

No ticking biological clock to keep me in rhythm with what I should be doing [...]

You held me
my face in your hands
as you kissed my forehead
long and sweet.
Your way of letting me know
you were still there–
as you would always.
Eyes welling with tears
face flushed with emotion
I tried to hide
my quivering voice.
It had been so long
since feeling your touch
since feeling anything from you.
I had forgotten what it meant
to have someone care
to let [...]
