Affirmation

I know you exist,

I know it because I do.

And even though we've never met,

I know that I will love you.

Then the stars will wish on us instead,

me and you.

We don’t wait for each other

because, we already are

within the other-

some part soul, some part bone

and through some parts of skin,

I’ll feel you

ruffling my hair through the breeze

while the frosted window panes 

will deliver my kisses for you.

Lingering on

long past we’re gone;

You and me,

my love.

You exist because I do

And I, because of you.

Loss

he told me that i had lost 

i told him i wasn't playing

he said not playing wasn't an option

i told him it wasn't fair

he said it didn't matter

i asked him what mattered

he said Winning

i asked him Did you win?

he said  No

i told him that he had lost too

he said At least I tried

I said it didn't matter


winning did
