Here I Am


Poem forthcoming, when I can free up brain cells to finish.


Poem now:

In the bourbon and water
Swirling
Thought I'd add a cherry
Sunken
To the bottom of the glass
Drained:

Did I savor you?

It's been too long,
Too late
Ice long melted away
Chills a heart still,
foolish as mine:

Did you warm me?

I don't want to feel nothin'
Tipping
Anchored to this empty bar
Floating
Eyes freely gazing in the glass
Reflecting:

Did I see eyes stir?

With senses pinging for towers
Dulling
I'd take knives deep in hollow skin
Driving
Valleys into concocted veins
Bleeding
for you again.

The longer I drink...
Here I am.

How To Sing With A Broken Heart
as yet (un)written



You sing a sad song with fondness in your eyes
Sparkling voice ever clearer
With green eyes that crystallize
