      Softness

      White

      Warmth

      Pulsing

      A flutter

      Shadows

      Swimming across the walls

      Fresh snow melting on my tongue

      Sunlight

      Spilling out from behind the clouds

      Wet greens

      The up-swell as a wind gathers

      To carry all we are

      Away

      Lightness

      Fingers knotted

      Skin

      Familiar

      Simple joys

      Surf

      Churning

      A last

      Breath

      Held

      There are memories still tucked within

      Crackling at the seams

      Pale blue sparks

      Your eyes

      A distance

      Yet to

      Travel

      Spread wide

      Against

      A rushing

      Current

      Of

      Fireflies

      Out in

      A

      Darkened

      Field

      As the daylight

      Crawls from your shoulders

      With the hesitation

      Of my lips

      & there are so many things

      I would rush to say

      If all we had was this morning

      For as long as the tides kept rolling in

      & washing over our feet

      Cold

      With a start

      First

      Breath

      Strength fading

      With one last surge

      To overcome

      Wash the years from my face

      Run your fingers

      Among these hillsides dressed in a sea of autumn flowers

      Wading through a conversation

      Waiting

      To hear the sound

      Of your voice

      Echo off these walls

      With a shudder

      We

      Raise

      These

      Towers

      & shed the worst of things

      Which have kept us from moving

      On

      Excuses

      Keeping us from saying

      What it is

      We need to say

      I have

      Remembered

      The lines

      Of your face

      Buried inside

      You

      Is a

      Hope

      That will never

      Fade

      Away
