#20: Goodbye Summer Lilly

I heard you breath one time september.
Inhale for 2 seconds.
Exhale for 3.5
A song of friendship like a warm july breeze;
it lulled me into november
where i'm looking at two people in a coffee shop.
he's an iced latte and she's a dollar short.
she replaces silences with 'my god's
and i sip my coffe and think about september.
#19: The world pauses

I slowly and definitely turn myself 360 degrees
observing the scene as if I were standing in a museum
I want to touch the tree in front of me
but as my arm raises there is
no depth, just the flat surface of the photograph beyond
So I lean back
try to see the photo in a perspective
but there is no end
no frame
the canvas continues in all directions
all around me.
I turn myself in another circle
then again
I speed up,
circling faster and faster
and become dizzy.
I'm dizzy
too much motion, too blurry to see
to focus
headrush
I stop.
the ground is cold on my knees
my breathing regular
my focus soon returns
and the world plays
#18: Early Riser

Leaving for work in the morning
I see the stars
#17: Dark clouds approach
2010-08-12 13:26:28
The mountains loom over me,
their mere presence humbles me.
And the world turns around me.
In silence,
I watch. Everything.
I'm just an observer of the night,
life is transitory.
Still, I interact,
Engaging my lovely environment,
Molding this tiny existence into something I call my own.
My fragile body.
My delicate life.
My everything.
#16: Your Fragrance.

Your fragrance.
In a fleeting moment of reminicence,
I shiver.
Nowhere to be found,
Out of touch,
Came from nowhere.
No trigger;
No love.
Now, I am warm.
