Carried Away

Five, no ten

fingers outstretch

Transported,

riding time's stream

seems

traceable, apparent

You plus me

Hands unclenched

emptied

For what

time has certainly carried away

  

Recycled?

When I'm thrown away
Where is the recycle bin to place
all that was between you and me?

Does a friendship

get to be recycled

Knit into the potential

within to find

love again?

When a person is thrown away

A lifetime of words, places, conversations

is attached

labeled

for recycling?

  

  

Refusing Ebb

Bluer than the brushstroke
up and to the side
bridging the divide

Bluer than the tears
always pooling tidal,
refusing ebb

I see the tide 
a little farther true north
just a little farther

To place the space
my soul resides

  

Inland

How can my world
become so small

and today

Even when it's here

Ticking of the clock

Driving

each ping

each clang

The day

sways

away

Inland

  

The Tide Will Never Fail

The tide will never fail
Waves in many ways

Roll in

Crashing or calling

I'm falling

into earliest memory

Core temperence

For wherein

all longing

stands fulfilled

  

Driving By

Did you hear me?
I spoke out your name

I said I love you
Driving by, a goodbye

I said thank you
for always

"Always being"
like you told me to,
long ago

Always Be,
Always, be
ALWAYS BE!

Disband

Where do they go

Attachment, lumen constant,

within a locale not for show

Where does the intrinsic self remain?

Along the way

Shame uproots

Turning from a central hold

Anybody

Near or far

Disbanded
