and fall asleep
and move through the world
tired and clumsy,

of what I am grateful for.
Those days,
I am grateful not for winter,

The Spider in the Shower
There’s a spider in the shower,
It showed up there today,
It’s in the corner

Life Plans
A single spark, a fleeting breath,
This wild, precious life, defying death.
I'll chase the sun on windswept shore,
And seek the truths I can't ignore.

Empty swing set; no laughter now.

Kept It All
I keep everything i have left of you
I still look at our pictures together
We looked so happy
I still have your sweatshirt
It still smells like you
I still have the stuffed animals

And I believed him.
