This is a poem I wrote about a year ago when I was still a Christian. It’s similar to my last poem, but it’s a bit darker and more personal. Enough of the heartbreak, enough of the pain. Just let me live one day where I’m feeling sane. I ...

On the Height Above the Depths There the tight air binds, breath extracted with a wince. There the blue sky bleeds into the indistinct horizon, its props kicked out, stretched down by its own weight. There I float above the wind worn crag,...

Don't let love make You lifeless. Run hard, Breath harder. Burn, like bowls Of sweet grass smoked. Flower, Find yourself fiercely. Do not look back, Embrace the day, always, Celebrate the Change it brings.
