Beyond vivid images of who you are
Can only be found beneath their surfaces
How you seem to wander mindlessly
Yet, fully aware of all your surrounds
The way your eyes lend life to the sky
Enhancing colors and stolen moments
That unsuspecting wind teasing your hair
Remaining constant, like your heartbeats
How gently the sun caresses your soft skin
As its presence rarely leaves sign of a visit
How oceans well up in your soul’s windows
At the first sign anyone or thing, is in pain
Those sensitive little kisses in your sleep
Whenever you draw yourself closer to me
Midnight giggles in the midst of your dreams
Reliving our earlier childish chase that day
The way you adore the blush of nature itself
Almost as if it silently seeks out your notice
How you can’t wait to make snow angles
As your shivering laughter ignores the cold
The way heat always radiates between us
Like a consuming fire the never grows old
The way you can gaze out a window pane
As if your in commune with heaven itself
Breathtaking clasping of your giving hand
Knowing mine will always offer comfort
That delicate tone inside your broken voice
As it reverberates my name like a love song
How easily anger dissipates your mindset
Because your heart loves only whats import
Your “everything is going to be alright” embrace
When everything seems to be going so wrong
Surely you’re more than a ghost of my hopes;
And our footsteps just haven’t collaborated yet?
Attributes are the avenues I oft endeavor
Unfortunately I rarely encounter anyone…on them

I hope they’ve all been welcome changes in your life. I was inspired to write again, so I finished it and figure I should post it as well. Plus I figured I needed to check in as my notifications still don’t get fed to me.

TY, its good for me to write when I’m not preoccupied doing other things, renewing my solo camping skills, practicing shooting my bow for my first Elk season, trying to do a bit of hiking as well.
