There's A Poem In This Lake

theres a poem in this lake
however it may hide
dive deep among it's waters
or simply look up at the sky

dip your fingers in the waters tears
watch the wind shake the trees
smile at the setting sun
and let yourself be free

watch the shadows dance to the breeze
watch the leaves fall
watch the mountains loom
and reach up, strong and tall

theres a poem in this lake
you just have to find it

  • Thoughts after the fair

    I’ve never enjoyed the feeling of being sick to your stomach on a fair ride. Maybe I just don’t have the iron-willed intestines that all of my friends seem to have, because I get sick from going on the teacups at a normal speed.

  • october, my love

    october,
    my love,
    it is good to see you once again.

    although it appears i have missed
    your grand entrance,
    while i left the room.

    i walked along the street to visit you,
    and looked up,
  • scratches

    skin pulled taut and tight
    burning like the light
    that seeps through cracks
    underneath the door

    from stray branches and walking
    throughout the woods, balking
    at the idea
    of no path

    water rests on skin
