To Leave

Tree limbs snap and crack.

Old familiar body aches.

You know when it's time.

Affair

Slash and slander and

screaming hysteria, but -

no body, no crime.

Promised Hand

Dark and stolen fields.

What an incandescent glow,

grown from other seeds.

Connection

you. The string that pulled

me out of wrong, a single

gold thread tied me to

True

Love offers no peace.

Unsettled waves, harsh winds blow.

You're standing with me.

Betrayer

Crushing waves, drowning

in faithless love, my heartbeat

foolish, stops for you.

Wisteria

Before fire consumes

springtime green, wisteria

will grow, shielding me.

Happiness

Soaring, looking at

sunflowers we planted. There

is happiness still.
