Text for Tired Eyes:


Is this what you wished for on all of the candles on all of the
birthday cakes from when you were tiny?  Did you watch the smoke
rise to the ceiling and believe with all your little heart that your
wish rose with it, disappearing into everywhere the instant it was
received by whomever would do the receiving.  I want to somehow
tell you that I can feel my childhood inside me, screaming and
slapping the walls of my chest and when those tiny hands are covered
in the red of this aching and they match the color of those tiny knees
and the weight of it all crumples his tiny body to the floor of my
insides what then do I say?  Do I apologize and re-light every candle
he’s ever blown out in some weak and hollow attempt to repent for the
madness he will one day face, the longing he will wrap himself in?

Keep your eyes open and there is so much magic waiting to be seen. Everywhere you turn, life is exploding into focus and absolutely begging to be noticed. It is our jobs, to walk through each day like our only responsibility is to seek it out. We are the magic hunters, these photos are the trophies we will hang upon our walls.

Text for Tired Eyes:


Every minute I am not with you I can feel a piece of hope
evaporating into the ether and I have run out of strength
to reach up through the sky to try to catch it’s moisture,
to feel it land on my hands and absorb itself into my skin
and carry itself through the miles of veins that have lost
their purpose when your hands are too far from my hands and
there is no need to rush blood to the corners of these lips,
no need to curl them into a smile for eyes that won’t see it. 
How do we stop counting the days, when it’s the hours that
taunt us and the fact will always remain that it’s every single
minute that you are not near me that attach to me like thousands
of anchors and pull me deeper beneath the surface.  I am drowning
and choking and gasping for breath but it is not the water that
I am drowning in, there are no swallowed fish in these lungs and I cannot
taste the sea.  Drowning not in water but in the sheer volume
of tears that have gone unwiped by fingers taking leave of my
hand they were holding.  Choking not on a lack of air and not
on the flavor of breath that I have forgotten but on the lack
of you and the number of moments left unshared between us.  On the
life that flows beyond us endlessly while we sit on the shore
and wait to be ready to dip our toes in, ready to jump with
our clothes on.

Text for Tired Eyes:


What do we hold when the arms aren’t there for holding?
Where do we put the longing and how do we build a place
inside ourselves strong enough to endure the ache?
When we become frantic and only the sound of our own
breath echoes through the emptiness where we can swear,
absolutely bet our lives that laughter should live, what then?
Was it always dark or did light once shine here?  Where is your
spark and why can I not feel the heat of it from where I stand?
