The mix tape
you made me
still plays -
inside my mind.

Island In the Stream...

An island in the stream,
where lonely hearts can dream,
the waves whisper your name,
and love burns like a flame.
Two souls drift with the tide,
with nothing left to hide—
lost upon the open sea,
yet somehow, you found me.

'The Seagull' - a short verse paraphrase of a Welsh prose poem, originally written by Dafydd ap Gwilym, c.1325-c.1380.

I kneel
before the night
and ask
that all goes well
with all.

poems into the

of a closed shop.
