  • Chasing love.

    Chasing love.

    Chasing love is like trying
    to catch your shadow.
    The harder you run,
    the faster it runs from you.
    Stand still, effortlessly still,
    and it’s right at your fingertips.

  • Relax.

    Relax.

    Relax.
    In just a few months
    (that will feel like
    a few lifetimes),
    You will forget
    that he ever consumed
    the vast majority
    of your thoughts
    and your heart.

  • The city skyline.

    The city skyline.

    The city skyline
    against the sparkling black
    backdrop of the night
    sky reminded me of you
    and the times we spent
    together; days I wish
    we could get back.

  • Failure

    Failure

    Trying and failing
    is like missing your
    turn in a traffic
    circle: you always
    get another chance
    to ride the circle
    again, loop back around,
    and take the right exit.

  • Missing you.

    Missing you.

    I miss you,
    as the sun
    misses the moon,
    as it turns
    from dusk to dawn
    and back again.
