On being brave
There are days when I fall asleep wondering about the line between stupid and brave.
BraveIs a hero rushing into battle
Ready to fight
For their passion
StupidIs a hero rushing into battle

Trees Talk
The trees talk,
you know?
They talk and if you listened
you would know,
they whisper
like kindergarteners
who can't stand straight in lines
but they can jump straight

Sew Me A Quilt?
I want your freckled cheeks and blond eyelashes
and I want your flying hair
and I want your careful words that start tumbling fast,
woven together,
please
so I can wrap myself up
and remind myself of happy.

I love
I love you.
I know that’s just meAnd you
And there are hundreds
Of millions
Of haters
Of hated.
But I love you.
But you’re my best friend.
I love you for phone calls -
When the boys grew up on sun and waves
The sun didn’t kiss these boys
It hugged them
The way you would with your best friend before
Leaving for a long time
It hugged them and
It made their skin the color of a caramel
And their hair like the sand
