no reminisce here just shedding
just leaving the jacket behind
as the sun begins to shine
it could have stayed poetic
between punctuation and
ALL CAPS
it could have stayed in its place
without the inclination to look back
now as my skin cools to a degree i have not felt
i am tempted to say the waves have washed over me
that i will be letting go, my head will not be heavy
perspective of the heart aches i have had and caused
where all the loyalty has begun to nod
i begin to understand our lacking indifference
passion is not always in the heat, in the fire manifest
today i find it deep inside hidden beneath my breasts
its a light that other dim, but only out of ignorance
where i sometimes live.
