It took another beautifully broken soul
to understand him.

Alone
He turned off the light
not because he wanted darkness
but because the light had become it.

Place
he fell without a sound,
into that place where his family left him,
where love was never there to taste,
only conditions that pealed it away …
leaving him with only
the smell of what they did.
love
Something he heard of,
something he’s seen
something he never felt
AVP
ashes
in the ashes of clipped wings
he kept his love of feathered fragment remains
hidden where no light would find it.

carved
carved away by a river of pain,
the worn and jagged edges of his heart
now expose the forgotten sedimentary layer
of how to love.
avp
coquettish
wearing his favorite t-shirt
and a coquettish grin,
he played board games
with dice and peoples hearts
losing his turn at love…
on his final spin.
avp
choir
born with a broken heart,
hollow thoughts crowd his mind
like a choir of burnt out candles
forgotten
in the middle of nowhere.
avp
red
he painted red on fractured walls
to hide the stains
that live in him.
avp
tangled
tangled up in an old lovers shirt,
he fell to the ground
and buried his abandoned heart.
