Postcard to Nowhere

Darling,
I'm going nowhere. I have been for a long time, but now I can fully accept it; now, I can choose to go nowhere. Goals, what are those? I'd rather disappear into translucent clouds and spend a lifetime sailing amongst stars. No one to bother me, no one for me to bother. I'll be all alone, just me and the universe. No responsibilites. Nothing to worry about.
But before I prepare to spend the rest of my life vanishing into nothingness, I have one last question -
Will you join me?
-your lost love

  • figures of the night

    we sat and imagined fireflies

    flitting between the tops of the RVs

    as the sun disappeared into muggy,

    illicit sludge. we realized we both liked

     the sticky-sweet taste of summer

  • The sun

    you're not

    leaving yet. no,

    i'll glue your limbs to the pavement,

    lower your waving hand,

    tell you

    something to make your eyes crinkle

    again.

    again,

    again,

    again.
