“Dead Butterflies
I sometimes think about the fragility of glass — of broken shards tearing against soft skin.When in truth, it is the transparency that kills you. The pain of seeing through to something you can never quite touch. For years I’ve kept you in secret, behind a glass screen. I’ve watched helplessly as day after day, your new girlfriend becomes your wife and then later, the mother of your children. Then realizing their only in thinking you were the one under glass when in fact it has been me— a pinned butterfly static and unmoving, watching while your other life unfolds.”

“A ROLLERCOASTER
You will find him in
my highs and lows;
in my mind,
he’ll to and fro.
He’s the tallest person,
that I know—
and so he keeps me,
on my toes.”

“Do you know what it is like,
to lie in bed awake;
with thoughts to haunt
you every night,
of all your past mistakes.
Knowing sleep will set it right -
if you were not to wake.”

“Shrinking in a corner,
pressed into the wall;
do they know I'm present,
am I here at all?”
