The holiday
Brings us together,
To tear us apart,
Left and right,
Red and blue,
Black and white,
Whatever divisions we can find,
Round the table,
The war of difference
Our relations will find
to divide
Tag: Family
Upheaval
Scattered,
Over the lands
Fragments of family,
Made from love,
Or something like it
Uprooted,
Upheaval,
Makes the grounds unsteady,
Uninhabitable,
In need of relocation
Roots are separated,
And replanted elsewhere,
To find stability,
And resources,
In another land
Division only spreads the space
Where seedlings find
Familiar roots
Next to which
They may grow
Always Family
We were never
Meant to be alone
We were all
Meant to be together
Never meant to go
But if we don’t go
We never remember
Remember to never forget
We were always family
Still are
Just don’t look
Like we expect
“family” to look
–each is different
Each requires
Compromise,
Patience.
Love Immortal
The light, the heat,
The electricity that generates
Our love,
The days grow longer and the sun closer,
But we more distant,
Distracted,
we forget we lose
Touch
with the genuine feeling,
Until we find it again
In the cold months,
And that love rebounds
Again, and again
and longs lasts into new summer heat
And withstand the slow death
Of the fall,
And rebirth from which we
Will spring,
But we will last,
Because our passion exploded
In the cold,
You are the snowman;
And I never created you,
I just gave you my heart,
and it brought you to life,
And you gave me your
Heart and soul,
And I was reborn,
And together
We made a
Love immortal.
Leaving
I fear you
And
I fear you not,
And I fear not just you
and what you could do
I fear you leaving
Me
Entirely.
I fear you fear
The same
Of me,
As well.

Woven web of life,
Passed days of the passed away,
Memory remains.
