Departure

Ravished - A carnal devouring of my body -
Eyes rolled back displaying a snowy white,
Frostbitten fingers feeling coarsely my skin
Lips with color flushed pressing against mine.
A flood of darkness expands in the gap
between our kiss - warmth escapes our breaths.
A winter most harsh overtaking a summer sun
And my mind flashes frozen to a still beating heart.

Monthly

Our world is monthly - 

Ever changing, inconsistent,

Gone with the wind,

Up and down with the tides,

broken like glass, and 

growing like a tree  -

Salutations and departures

All in one held breath,

Blurted boisterously, 

Whispered humbly,

Rotating schedules of day and night,

Schizophrenia and bipolarity,

Meeting on the line of sanity,

And flipping the calendar page

To December.
