My Heart Burns
My knees wobble
my feet are glued
my stomach turns
my heart burns
my head runs, miles per second
and I’m undo
because you rang.
Something extremely short, but sweet I hope?

I Want To
I want to
place one foot in
front of the other
shrug my shoulders
pull my coat closer
to my heart and bow my head
in remembrance.

which, although healed

by someone I wanted to
remember me.
I want to

I day dream of all I yearn of,
it never stops, it never dulls…
I yearn, and I yearn,
nothing ever changes.
