As Twilight Fades

We sat down
and watched 
as the world
fell apart
around
us 
like snow
on a quiet day.
~
Did you know
the way
that 
the sun 
hits 
your eyes
makes 
this pain
almost
feel alright?

The 
way
you catch me
as my
chest 
collapses
under
the pressure 
of letting go
reminds me
that 
I am not
so vastly 
alone.  
~
But as twilight fades 
to night
the ghosts whisper 
the list
of the sins in which 
I must atone

I close my
eyes
breathe
and wish 
one last time
to just 
go home.

Unity

 Each  and every  day we grow older Our wrinkles grow deeper Our hair thins greys and falls out Each  and every  day We grow My heart aches ...
