PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

never got to use the word wed

in the right ways

never put the apostrophe

in the right syllable

we’d

we wish we would we will

yes I saw myself in love

but never in details

if I drew it

(with my unique artistic sensibility)

it would not hold a keyhole

not an amateur’s eavesdrop to this

yes I saw myself in love

but never in lonely

oh when that lonely hits

I have both the beauty and the bane

& you have a shoulder

I can call a cozy place to sleep

pin your name to the walls so I don’t forget

now planning for two

with the passion of one

I have learned to look around corners

under baskets

for the most unlikely of stories

I have learned to listen in alleys

outside sideways theaters

for the most silly of words

just to gift you

the most charming of laughs

there was a coming together

and now I

now we

get to build the pieces

build the dreams we marvel at

as if things are built on anything less

tesserate me

I will fold up small enough

carry me home

we laugh like children

we heal like heroes

oh my, oh mine

so many things ache

but not now
