A Collection of Irregular Poems

you are more

your eyes are grey

storms over the sea

your hands are tan

sand on a beach you

can't

forget

your hair shines darkly

bands of stars in a

charcoal haze

your cheeks scatter roses

a sunset and rise dancing

on a sea of butterscotch

your laughter hums

truer melodies than the crusts and

thorns they battered you with - what

made them tear streams

from your eyes? inky swirls

on a dead tree's skin? one word used as

an excuse to say it is

okay to toss you away

to see you as one word and

one word only?

how could

we

not feel the

truth inside us?

you are

more

so much more

than a single

word - false letters cannot

hold you any

more than they could hold

me.
