Beyond it all

Which part of you do you identity most as yourself?
When do you feel every fibre illuminate and glow?
The blood in your every last vein, your breath raciest?

What moment of perfect coincidences penetrates you irrevocably?
When do you stop and stare at the immensity of you?
How do you touch, and own, that irresistible perfection?

Who are you in that very split second of recognition?
Who are you as the last piece finally fits?
Who are you when the haze lifts?

Do you capture those fleeting chances?
Do you etch that awareness?
Do you lose a few seconds?

Does it overwhelm you?
Does it define you?
Do you know?

Could I have imagined you?

Every year, I think about you. Not too many times, but consistently, a few times. And each time I am not sure how I should feel.

I am not even sure I remember your face. Your smile, yes. Your eyes, too. But in pieces, in context. I can't imagine your reaction in a new situation. I can't see you as you may have become.

If you wish you had known me all this time. If I am even a real person to you. If you have convinced yourself that I don't exist.   Perhaps it isn't as simple as moving on, as erasing, as avoiding. Maybe it's an intense removal, a complete denial. I don't hate you. I don't love you. It's an absence of anything ta...

Memories of you....

There is a strange sort of nostalgia that pulls me towards you again and again. Each time I say goodbye and think I have forgotten, memories come reminding.  Shards of yesterday A million dreams  Scattered and nameless  I always wonder if I made a mistake with you. And the little space of could-be leaves me annoyed and just a little unsure.  And as always I write about it and leave it like I see it, as a lingering-passing thought. Perhaps tomorrow I will remember a little lesser. Perhaps tomorrow I will finally let go.

Brainless heart

Instinctive desire Animal sanity Human need No rationality Taking every risk Making every move And then  Regret Reckless desire Left uncontrolled Effortlessly moving  In opposite directions Pulled together Ripped apart Stupid emotions Brainless heart
