The Light

I'm looking forward to looking back,
but the realism has yet to settle.
The time to reminisce
will come in time.
Instead, I push forward like
a wrecking ball against bricks.

The reason for my lack of disregard
is transcribed in every work.
It's because I know a light awaits me
in a place my hands cannot reach
and my eyes cannot see,
waiting for me to turn it on.

And only I will know the distance
it will take for me to arrive.
My endless imagination will work wonders,
while my tireless legs continue to move.
And only I will know when I am there
and I will share the light with everyone.

Trust in Me

I know we can't seem

to win the fight,

but that day is coming.

Our trip is long

and we are merely

stopping for the night.

My beautiful one,

it's you and me now

and we can't be stopped.

We are only as strong

as we want to be,

and we are powerful.

Maybe, but I always want more

It's always a rare moment
when held speechless.
But that is where I am today
and yesterday, and probably tomorrow.

Electrodes have yet to go off
in this brain of mine.
Doc Brown has yet
to get struck.

But I know it will.
Every inch of work,
every typed letter,
every question asked.

Every tear, every smile,
every stressed moment,
every fight, every embrace.
Does this mean I've finally made it?

Mine

You are my four walls,
my door and my bed.
You are the front steps
I take into comfort.

My dear, you are
my mirror, who I look right into.
You are my faucet when
I wash my hands clean.

Love, you are my backyard,
where I spread my arms wide.
You are my window that
lets in air to cool me.

Doll, you are my blanket
that keeps me warm.
Wherever you are
is where I call home.

V.A.A.

Every day I wait
perfectly impatiently
for the welcoming home
we will build.

I wonder about their faces,
and what will drive them,
while they play peacefully
in the grass.

I will look at you
and say how happy I am
that we accomplished
all we said we would.

I know this because
a smile catches my lips
by merely the thought
of this dream.
