kiss me now

all i ask is

that you love me

that you take away

the darkness

that you reflect

my eyes in yours

i

am wishing

for a simple thing

i

am waiting

for a lovely thing

i

am wishing for

a kiss

all i ask

is that you kiss me






now

chinless humans

upon examination of the neanderthal skull, the professor noted that some modern-day humans have almost no chins, while others seem to have nothing but. each skull, when compared with the other, would confuse a would-be paleontologist. perhaps her or she might think they were looking at a starbucks barista, or a trolley car operator instead of jay leno.

i will survive tomorrow by living in today

awakening

in my dreams
i fall in love
i fight fires
i hear strange and beautiful music
i laugh
i fear for my life
i see people long forgotten
and those i've never met
there are places
often visited
and vistas beyond imagination
i feel touched by kindness
angered by injustice
i am rich
i stuggle to survive
i witness death
i defy gravity
i cry at immense sadness
i live lives not mine

and

sometimes

in the morning

i awaken
to something

even more wonderful
