Us: It's All We Need
A love poem using only words with four letters or less
Us.
It's all we need.
When time is slow.
When life move fast.
We will grow old.
Our love will last.
We had some hard.
We had some soft.
Our time with,
And out.
We got our foil.
We had to toil.
One went away.
Tho one said stay.
One dare not see.
What one was: free.
Soon it was seen.
Two can be free.
Toil as one.
Be. Come.
It just take work.
And hurt.
And care.
We got us tho.
For in the end,
We were our star.
Near,
Or far.
It's us.
We are.
Will be.
You.
Me.

Phosphorescent, Baby!
I cheated a little bit here, because I've included a bonus track on my Zen Playlist that isn't by the band Phosphorescent, but I love how the lead singer (Matthew Houck) included the most lovely calming bookends on his two most recent albums - C'est La Vie (2018) and Muchacho (2013).

181 Keeping Watch
Each day she watched through her window. Watched? Perhaps an exaggeration: a monochromatic nuclear aftermath remaining of the world, blurring into a blindness--loss of contrast and depth of field. Achromatic aberrations displayed a waste-scape stratified in grays.
