Forest of Rain

Understand that, the prisons you've built are of your own design.

Understand that, you should be the person you wanted to be when you woke up this morning.

Understand that, the world desperately wants to love you, if you'll let it.

Understand that, you deserve that love, even if you don't feel like it.

Understand that, love can hit a planet like a comet.

Understand that, the rain can unrain, if you want it to.

Salting of the Earth

You should know that there is something worse than hate and that is unlove.

Because hate is anger over something lost, hate is passion, hate is misguided, it's caring for the wrong things but it is still caring.

But unlove, unlove is to unkiss, to unremember, to unhold, to undream, to undo everything that ever was and leave smooth stone behind in its wake.

No fire.

No fury.

Just, nothing.

And that is worse than hate.

Black Ink In Their Eyes

The problem is you think poetry is about words. But the greatest poets I ever met, never wrote a single word.

Sound of the Sea

May I see the things in front of me as they are, not as I think them to be.


May I walk the steps ahead of me one at a time, not wondering if there's a map.


May I say the things that fix things, not break them further apart.


May I do what I need to do, not be distracted by what I can't.


May I dream of what I hope for, not of what I fear.


May I love you like I love you, not as any other, me.

The Language of Stars

Love:

To discover there's at least one other real person on planet Earth.

Loss:

To discover that the aliens, can look just like you.
