Between the lines
Sometimes there’s not much to say and yet the silence speaks volumes.
All the words you’ve left unspoken, letters unsent, flowers undelivered… The mute phone says all I need to know about how much I mean to you and how much you really miss me.

Conflicted
“My daddy says that sex is a sin,” she spoke in a huff. “And only those who’ve wed under God Almighty should engage in it.”
And he replied, “well my dear, it sounds like your father hasn’t sinned in a very long time and all that frustration has soured his tongue.”

Sorry but I can’t hear you over the sound of all my awesomeness.

Fickle Well
Words come tumbling from my throat like endless, rolling waves until I add ink to my voice and the river dries up.

The Heart of a God
Grief is an ugly thing as is rage and hate and obsession.
But with clear, steady eyes we can see the shape of our own hearts and fear no darkness.

Trembling truth
I’m tired of the excuses - the little white lies that bury the truth: that no matter what you say, you just don’t have the courage to fight for the things you claim to believe. You God-damned, fucking coward.

Pilgrim
Long into the twisted wood, past the oak and branch and briar; deep into the gath’ring dark, past the circle of your fire.
Further than the distant stars, twinkling beyond the sky; deep into your very heart where you hide behind your lies.
Past the heavens and the earth and the realms of men and God; you, who seek out happiness, onward, onward must you trod.

She’s no stranger to the flame and the way she says your name sets your blood boiling inside and makes you flush with pride.
And when she goes to dance, it’s with simple elegance and a touch of the grace that hides behind her face.
