where I touched it, everything
rests within his soul.

SOL: Derision
The last time you spoke
my name: scorn, softness, regret –
tidal waves of pain.
3AM Thoughts // AKA “Haiku 188.”

There are some pleasures
that I know I can never
hope to find again.
3AM Thoughts // AKA “Haiku 181.”
SOL: Nuvole
Dark days, the mornings when
I can’t tell if I should get out of bed or
Wait until they come to cart me away
Sitting down in the shower
Hoping the hotter the water
The lesser the ache
3AM Thoughts // AKA “Let’s Talk.”
SOL: Restraint
your name is the one
word I refuse to let slip
past my lips again.
3AM Thoughts // AKA “Haiku 128.“
SOL: Coping
I could be everything you want if you’d let me but
I bet I would be gone before you got to see it through
Somewhere along the way in one of the many cities
I’ve been to, I left my heart at a bus station, waiting
On the bench for salvation that will never come.
3AM Thoughts // AKA “At One Point I Got It, Then Promptly Lost It.”
SOL: Entombed
the fear of my own
mortality is holding
me back from my life
3AM Thoughts // AKA “Haiku 102.”
SOL: Nocturnal
Have you forgotten
me, do you remember how
those nights in bed felt?
3AM Thoughts // AKA “Haiku 98.”
SOL: Reverie
she carves her teeth on
slices of reality
lost to fantasy
3AM Thoughts // AKA “Haiku 95.”
SOL: Apprehensive
If only I had been
Brave enough to trust
My own path, except I couldn’t
Help but to look back, hand-feeding my
Insatiable desires, mimicking Orpheus’ most
Loving betrayal
3AM Thoughts // AKA “Strong Enough To Stand On My Own.”
