My second favorite place to visit on our 10 country trip through Europe was Venice! We ended up spending 3 days in Venice and it was such a unique, chill and beautiful experience. We took Flixbus…
I try to understand what cannot be understood
and you tell me that my brain lacks the ability to
digest the severity of your case
and it is best that I save my energy for the sane.
I melt in you.
My eyes burn holes into your soul.
I watch it shrink and numb itself
and you grow weaker when strength
should be a welcome reprieve.
You tell me not to speak of the
voices — they do not calm,
they do not ease, all you know from them
is the want to create havoc.
And I stand in your fire,
waiting for the flames to die down,
but they find no home of their own.
They are building their castle
in your head as a nesting place,
frying each of us where we stand.
I tell you that I will not leave
that I am by your side,
that I have been and will be
yet you yearn to push me away
believing in abandonment more
than my word.
“What can I do to help?”
You curl your lips into a Q,
take a deep breath, and whisper,
“Nothing.”
And I know what fear needs
from the downtrodden bent on
being pulled ashore from
salty seas.
I am here,
waiting for you to take risks,
certain that I will send the odds
spinning into space.
Certain that I will love
you even when you think
I have lost the power to do so.
