Merry Christmas!

Well, this holiday has been quite eventful. Black outs and ice storms and family schedules.
I haven't been in a very festive mood lately, but that doesn't stop me from wishing all of you guys a very merry Christmas (or if you don't celebrate Christmas, a very merry Wednesday).

Honesty

why is it that

I write for you during 

the strange hours

of night,

when I'm drunk

on fatigue

and fingertips drag along

the keyboard

when cliches I hold back

run off the tip

of my tongue

and into

nonsense;

garish butterflies

drowned by

unnecessary words

when I become

so candidly honest

that it borderlines

absurdity

and I can't help

this overflow

of love?

Water

They say

that love is a fire,

singeing,

burning,

devouring everything

in its flames

of passion and lust.

But your love 

is more like water:

seeping through the cracks,

soothing burns,

enveloping with

quiet lulls of ripples

that fluidly change 

into crashing waves

and back,

eroding walls,

dissolving me slowly
and gently
in
your arms.
