people keep talking.
hearts harbor the deepest hurts.
the river flows on.
---------------------------------------
tail lights paint me red.
jealous of the floating moon.
silver, unaware.
---------------------------------------
age of wildflowers.
young and ruthless beauties,
never here to stay.
-------------------------------------
mountains on the skin.
pink dots like constellations.
you are not "dirty".
-----------------------------------
dying light of day.
stars clock into the night shift.
birthed fire of morning.
----------------------------------
my heart had hillsides.
he smoothed them with a light touch.
love is an earthquake.
