"Do you miss me there,
there across the day’s divide,
there across the hours?"
there across the day’s divide,
there across the hours?”

I live in a place that constantly leaves you breathless. I am so used to waking up and walking out and falling asleep gasping for the air that was stolen. (at Paradise Valley, MT)

you’ll always find a home in
my hands on your face."

Text for Tired Eyes:
And just like the moon so forlornly needs to shine itself on the tired sailor and just like that tired sailor needs so badly to trust the ship that he’s steering and just like that ship needs its sails to catch the wind and push it and just like that wind needs the sea to dance above and that sea needs its dolphins to gracefully play inside and those dolphins need the waves to surf their way through and just like the waves need so achingly to crash into the sand and the sand needs to find itself dimpling your skin when it’s caught inside your bathing suit and just like that skin needs the soap to wash off the sand and just like the soap needs these hands to lather it into bubbles that will float around the tub and just like those hands need to be held, slippery and pruney as they might be, I need you.
Do you need me, too?
FIN.
"Tender this heart beats,
oh but how fiercely it fights
for all that it loves."

One of the most mind blowing things I have noticed since beginning to post all of my writing online, has been incredible spread and distance it seems my words can take from time to time. Yesterday, @cheifk3ef showed me this photo he took while walking around an old graveyard in Stockholm, Sweden. He told me it was such an old graveyard, that some of the names have worn off of the gravestones, and there on the wall was one of my Daily Haiku on Love. Writers write for a thousand different reasons, but for me I have always written to get the words out of me, not really paying much attention to where they landed after the fact. To see that some of those words have wings, and some of those wings can flap hard enough long enough to take them to places like this, absolutely blows my mind. Thank you @cheifk3ef for sharing this. So much.

Text for Tired Eyes:
Just like a bed needs a body and a pillow needs a head and that head needs to be dreaming and those dreams need our wishes to plot out the story and those wishes need first stars to feel real and those first stars need the black that surrounds them to shine and just like that black needs the rest of us to know that it’s not black but filled with galaxies and just like those galaxies need telescopes to find them and those telescopes need mirrors to see so deep into space and those mirrors need hands to clean them and wash off the smudges and just like those hands need to be held, wrinkled and old as they might be, I need you.
Just like the old books needs to be held by a reader and the reader needs a comfortable chair to lounge in and that chair needs to have a cup of tea precariously perched on its arm and that tea needs to have just the tiniest bit of sugar inside it and that sugar needs to stick slightly to the spoon before it is stirred and that spoon needs to be stuck to a nose and just like that nose needs to smell the aroma of fresh baked cookies from the oven and those cookies need the dough that was just licked off the mixers and that dough needs hands to be stirring it and those hands need to be held, sticky and covered in chocolate as they may be, I need you.
Part Four.
