Do I wish you near?

As if a wish could bring you
closer to the flesh of
empty hands.

In your absence...I seek nothing.

And the void itself is your
embrace.

Do I wish you near?

As if a wish...could bring you
any closer.

beautiful and true...
thinking of the energy they leave behind in their wake...
achingly so....

Negative space is often what gives art its depth. I always enjoy the way you look at life and the quietly understated complexity of your poetry.

Oh, for that embrace even in the absence is the truest touch upon the open heart.
I really liked this one too.

Perhaps the wish
will fall into a dream...
and the dream revolve
into reality?

Ah...it's possible...
and I believe
in miracles!
