You Are


Who am I to say
your the best, the greatest

Who am I to tout
your beauty, your grace

Who am I to claim
you have changed me

Who am I to know
the greatness of your love

Who. Am. I?

Beautiful Love


if there was one word
to describe who you are
I can only imagine
what it would be
one word can simply
not contain all you are

but one word that comes to mind is: beauty

Open Wide


each petal unfurls
like the first rays of a sunrise
slow, deliberate, beautiful
each one spreading out
hugging the sun close
like two lovers long separated

each petal the color
of a young girl blushing
on her very first date
standing next to her date
while her dad sizes him up

beauty in each small detail

First Loves and Such

a third of my life was spent
making memories with you
you are what I remember
when I look back at my childhood

but that is all you have become
a distant memory
that fills me we joy
and a longing I cannot explain

I don't know how else to tell you
but you were my first love
and when you turned your back on me
my heart broke in two

and yet somehow I still love(d) you...

Two Things to Say

I have two things to say 
one is much harder to say
(than the other)
both can heal 
both can be a lie, hurting

I want to say, "I'm sorry."
and, "I love you."

Day Won

Each new day
I wake up with hopes
of ending the day a winner

At days end
I usually feel like
I got stuck somewhere
in between
victory and failure
