She swears by the moon
That she’ll love me forever
And I know in that moment
She’s just like the moon
Changing forever

Poem: Deepest of Blues
We watched the sun set and the moonrise
Until the moon set and the sun rose again
The horizon circling around us
Like we were the very center of the universe
The infinite heavens stretched above us
Stars burned falling lost forever
Beyond our notice as we were lost
Poem: Starry Eyed Night
A girl with stars in her eyes
The embodiment of a wish
With promises in her lips
Makes me want to stay
Aimless satellite in her orbit
Where she has me spinning
Poem: Early Morning with Unanswered Questions
The silence of the wet street
Interrupted by the sounds
Our sneakers make as we walk
Following the stars away
From the sun soon to rise
Poem: Impossible Horizon
On twisted up sheets we lay
The stars of a million dreams
Stretching to the four corners
Outward to infinity where we are
Spinning around without moving
Poem: The Minor Distance Between Stars is Great
Out in the Midwest at night
Looking heavenward you can see
Nearly every observable star
Stretching an out spread hand
To the sky my fingers can bridge
Galaxies that are unfathomable
Poem: Memories of Something that Never Happened
I never did get to kiss you
Though my body struggles
To accept that simple fact
My mind plays tricks on me
Where I think I can still feel
You lying in the wet grass
Next to me also shivering
Poem: Revolving Fortunes
Poem: Breaking the Distance too Impossible
Out here on the edge
Where moon cast shadows
Marks the passage of time
From yesterday to today to tomorrow
In that space my thoughts wander
Where I think of you
I think I can see you
Poem: Ripples
It’s her breathing
In late night hours
The in and out
Of silence masking
The slumber of a dreamer
