Imminent Proof
I pour a glass and drink from the bottle, You are not you, You are who I make you out to be. And that be Is greater than you actually are Because who you will be, Inevitably will be greater with me. There cannot be a you without me, And there cannot be a me without you. I say this and claim it to be true Although I cannot prove it. But the greatest things in life cannot be proven, Love, feelings, aspirations...

Seasons
Footsteps waking up a small town Rain pattering as it lands on the blades of grass Left-over clouds from the night before Weave in and out of the mountain tops Fall colors are the only true colors of nature It's written all over my face Thoughts weigh me down Like tree branches after a heavy snowfall

Lucid Lighthouses
Inevitably, moments imprint in our memory Some life-changing moments, some ordinary moments Like streams finding the ocean They all end up in the same place The car hurtles through space To detach the city of fuzzy lights From it's passengers In pursuit of a predetermined lighthouse The rear view mirror Reflects a dwindling spectacle of the city Whose town walls Began to build another foundation An enchanting melody permeates the air Eliciting a glacial moment in time The secret yearn for a perpetual chorus A desire foreseeably forbidden Driving steadfast into the night Far from the sea The first landlocked lighthouse That ever came to be.

That’s Just How We Are
Mountains don't have balance, That's just how they are. They don't wish things to be different, So they don't suffer. I don't wish for the color blue To be anything other than the color blue. And in this manner, I don't suffer. The evergreens don't wish to change the past Or daydream about the future. Those who wish to change something, Inevitably wish to change everything. The rivers and the mountains intuitively bring out the best in each other, A synonymous symbiotic relationship, Ebbing, flowing, and adapting to their environments. That's just how we are. For a sunset to be a sunrise, Only a madman would wish.

As One Does
Sailing west off the mainland A familiar direction As the sunset bled into the horizon There remained a wall of protection
A blanket of darkness covered the island Peeking through the nightfall A convergence of paths Unveiled a change in tone
The star-studded sky faded to dawn The sunrise played like a movie A reverie of two seemingly star-crossed lovers Sprawled out on the lawn
Destiny arrives As one does When you least expect it As love does
