whispers

She whispers to you earnestly. You listen. Your hand raises to your mouth. You look at her intently. Her neck arches towards you close. “it is imperative that you listen to my every word. I know something about you, don’t you see?:

On the other side of things there is a young girl hiding in the nook of a tree. Some days she looks out and swings from a branch. Some days she stays very very still. There will be a time when you will need her. When you go to her remember that she will welcome you with open arms. She has cleared a place for you. Someplace to rest. Someplace open. The leaves will ruffle and tickle and she will listen to you with deep emotion. She will smile and coax you into laughter and tears. You will breathe long purposeful breaths. You can leave when you are ready. And she will look for you on the horizon. Hurry be on your way.”

Let that girl be me.

my love

i see bruises
from head to toe

how do you go on?
can't you run away with me?
if only i could scoop you up in my arms and bring you far from the chaos.

love and war.
cliches you say.

i am foolish you say.
i have little to offer you say.
i cannot protect you. i know. i know.
and even if i could you would never accept.

naive and missing you.
a you you may never be.
a me i've never stepped up to.

if you came to my shores the sweet ocean could lick your wounds.
