For you lies were like keys
unfastening righteous patterns
and hearts flat with failure.
–
Once you held the ends to my means.
Now it takes work just to breathe.
I call out to you but only from a distance.
–
Do you still feed the stars
when no one’s watching?
Do you still drop your voice
whenever you undress?
–
A miraculous mistake,
you came naturally enough.
Dreams have the lowest pain threshold.
–
On your way out be sure to ascend
and leave me with your mythos intact.
So long as I sleep I can still be happy.

A quick scribble while listening to sappy love songs.

You always have such a wonderful way with words.
I find that for me poetry comes in fits and starts these days.
I have been struggling to find my rhythm lately with so much going on in my life
So much more than a scribble – feeding stars is such a captivating image and yes..sometimes breathing alone is hard..let’s stay in those good dreams for a while
Thank you so much Jae for your lovely words
nice!
remember
to put away
those keys? 🙂

I love this: “So long as I sleep I can still be happy.” Hope life is treating you well, Yves.
