Sad

I’m sad tonight.

To write is the only pill I have.

I heard some news today that broke my heart, and here it is in my hands as I stand beside the world and become the sky.

Empty as the sky. Blue as the sky. Open as the sky.

How I wish I could give the words back, never to have heard them.

I see you, love, peeking around the corner.

Hold me now, in this sorrowful place.

The Sad of Life

There’s a sad drooping in the air today.

A deep sad, thick among the fog of all things left unsaid.

It floats in the river and I catch it in my cup, most unwillingly—

oddly enthusiastically.

Tomorrow, I will place it in the trees and fly it back home.

And I will send for the sun to melt the ice it left behind.
