Another Bug

I fight
I struggle
I crawl
In the end
I am merely

Another bug

Echoing

your voice sounds
in all of my joy
echoing in my past
and in the dreams of my future
reflecting and repeating
though out my life and
in all of my happiness

A Heart Too Young

there is a hollow place in me
that rests waiting for your memories
that longs to hear your whispers
echoing softly towards our future

I see your love for me flourishing
but too afraid to reach out
your timid heart, too young to know
that love when held too tightly

can Slip through your fingers.

A Winter Sparrow

This cold hungry day
A winter sparrow
Sups at your window

Eating some few crumbs
of summers wheat.
Your crust of bread

A simple act of love
Your kind heart
Sustains him

And so it is with me

Dear Princess Letters

Dear Princess,
I want to speak to you in quite tones, and to tell you I love you, because it defines me. I know who and what and where you are. On those points I am quite clear. But I know that you care for me and love me as well. I would say if that has changed then tell me goodbye. But you would say goodbye to make a point and I want none of that. I wasted the last year afraid of you, running away like a school boy, when I wanted nothing more than to be with you. Don’t push me away and define lines that I already understand. I will never hurt you and you know that, so don’t waste your time defending where there is nothing but my kindest desires towards you. I want nothing except your happiness somehow shared with me and my happiness with you. Love Cordell
