it is not a garment i cast off this day, but a skin i tear with my own hands (Kahlil Gibran)



i do no want to miss you
i do not want to feel
i want to tuck this all away
but that's no way to heal


 the ways of love are hard and steep
i know this to be true
but easiness and comfort was
what i found in you

to move forward and not look back
takes a journey maybe two
but secretly inside myself 
i don't want to not, miss you

a thread did bare from my heart
and wove into your own
embroidered over time  
it built the place that i called home

i feel this tie between us still
and wish it not to weather
 maybe what we live apart
 we can one day bring together
