My Dwelling

This house is quiet.
Defeated.I imagine it knows
I imagine it had dashing hopes as all dwellings do
Hopes of sustaining life and holding a family
Season after season
If it only knew
It takes more than a house to hold a family
Together


First night.

I think I always hated that song that goes "when the rain washes you clean you'll know" song because it rang true (but was so played-out and oh-so dorky).

I have confidence that one day you'll look back on the momentary sorrow and think how lucky you were to have so many more years to get the girl ya deserve, that matches you. She's out there but, like some mythical beast, she only appears when the light shines just so.
