All you need is love

Perhaps not love itself but the knowledge that love is there. 
Like new batteries in the flashlight in the emergency kit in the hall closet

Reservations

You still hold a special place in my heart. 
I keep this special place just for you, like a ‘Reserved’ sign on a quiet corner table in a restaurant.

Tiny Beautiful Things Gone

 “The illusion of freedom will continue as long as it’s profitable to continue the illusion. At the point where the illusion becomes too expensive to maintain, they will just take down the scenery, they will pull back the curtains, they will move the tables and chairs out of the way and you will see the brick wall at the back of the theater.”

- Frank Zappa

Learning how to fly

  I was advised that to make her fall in love, I had to make her laugh. 
  But every time she laughs, I’m the one who falls in love. 

Days of future past

The days came along one after another, 
and then four months were gone, 
and everything was gone, 
and I was gone.
