Hopeless Romantic
Do not think I exaggerate.
Love is exact.
It measures the distance
between two chairs,
counts the seconds
between one message and the next,
knows precisely
how much silence a heart can carry
before it breaks like a plate
dropped on a kitchen floor.

Mortality
Her eyes
Where I lived and died
Many times over
Her eyes
That have given me
A longing for life again
Her eyes
That moved me to believe
In dreams after years
Of drifting through
Emptiness
