  • Reluctance - Robert Frost [Poem]

    Out through the fields and the woods

      And over the walls I have wended;

    I have climbed the hills of view

      And looked at the world, and descended;

    I have come by the highway home,

      And lo, it is ended.

     

    The leaves are all dead on the ground,

      Save those that the oak is keeping

    To ravel them one by one

      And let them go scraping and creeping

    Out over the crusted snow,

      When others are sleeping.

     

    Reluctance - Robert Frost


    And the dead leaves lie huddled and still,

      No longer blown hither and thither;

    The last lone aster is gone;

      The flowers of the witch hazel wither;

    The heart is still aching to seek,

      But the feet question ‘Whither?’

     

    Ah, when to the heart of man

      Was it ever less than a treason

    To go with the drift of things,

      To yield with a grace to reason,

    And bow and accept the end

      Of a love or a season?

  • I know that spending this much time alone is dangerous

    I know that spending this much time alone is dangerous

    bandages made from whiskey and nicotine--cannot stop the bleeding

    ignoring another phone call now

    leave it go to voicemail

    maybe she has a better explanation

    it is not that I want to be alone but rather, I do not know how to be myself without it

    have you ever spent an entire day without speaking?

    I have, hundreds of times

    it feels like me in the most chilling way

    like leaving a voicemail, for someone who is already dead.

  • I stared into the fire [Poem]

    I stared into the fire

     as if looking into my soulmates eyes and said out loud

    with no one else around

    babe-- losing you

    is losing half my soul

    and I'm not sure if I'll ever get over this- but I know that I'll love you forever

    and I promise you I'll keep our children safe

    love you baby
