Not ready

When the world is dark, and the stars are out 

My mind comes alive. 

I drown alone in my thoughts with a smile on my face, 

And let myself get lost, 

Because I know I’ll be found. 

I don’t yet know when, or how, or by whom, 

But someday these thoughts will be put into words and understood. 

When I am understood, I will know, and my soul will be set free 

But till then I will wait, for the day my future comes 

The universe will know I’m ready.

  • mancini and mood lighting

    a symphony of saxophone and jazzy drums plays

    for a crowd of men in wide collared shirts and women in boxy dresses

    in their hands are drinks

    martinis and manhattans 

    with glistening ice cubes inside their glasses

  • proximity

    we're so close. 

     

    I am wrapped in the touch of another 

    suspended in a state of contentment

    and soft safety. 

     

    the lights in my room are warm

    and in the mirror 

  • kid

    where the soft grass meets the sea

    is where you'll find her

    for eternity now.
