Musings on Moving On

Nine months ago
I was pregnant
with words
for you.
But
now
I realize
it was just
hot air all along
and our child is stillborn.

Musings on Mixed Emotions

This is the longest I've gone
without feeling the sun
and I do and don't want
for this to go on.

Musings on a Certain Prissy Quidnunc

Tell everyone but her
because she is Echo
and I wouldn't want
everyone to know.

Musings on How It Used to Be

Every time I
look at you I
see a shadow of
what once was.
and
Every time you
glance at me you
remember what
had once been us.

Musings on a Dream

“Leave.”

Your tone, resentful;

acrid on your tongue.

Your face, torn

in between anger

and anguish.

“Leave.”

Your breath, ragged.

Your lips, chapped;

hungry, forceful petals

sending butterfly rebels.

“Leave.”

Your hand around my wrist

holding me in place.

Your eyes imploring,

entreating me to stay.
