Spooky Season

When the air is crisp,

with a chilly breeze,

fall puts a spell on me.

The leaves fall in a wisp,

as an artist weaves-

a portrait of the fiery sea.

Though, it’s not February,

love seeps through the air.

For all things spooky, and scary,

as we celebrate autumn without a care.

Bats fly above ours heads, as night-

falls, casting the stars a glow.

They are the land’s spooky light,

as we enjoy our time before the snow.

  • Losing Someone

    Losing someone you love,

    hollows out a part of you.

    One day, you have them,

    and the next,

    you’ll never see them again.

    The realization stings,

    worse than the sun's engulfing hug.

  • Untitled?

    When the chaos of the day 

    gets washed away  

    and the serenity of night descends, 

    I begin to wonder, as the stars ascend. 

    Trying to put puzzle pieces together 

  • Intertwined

    When only the stars shine,

    the winds’ whispered rhyme-

    echos across the land.

    As the sea longs for the moon.

    The magnetic pull-

    Weaves their fates together.

    Intertwining them for eternity.
