i'm missing something


 it's the sound of tired feet
pattering into the kitchen at 2am.
it's the sighing of the trees
when the wind is soaring by.

sung like an old song on my lips.

letters tucked between the pages
of my favorite book.
his eyes hiding behind the ghosts
we were of yesterday.

when did i become so wrong?

i lingered in the quiet house,
watching the sunset grieve gray and blue.
doubt remnants on my heart,
stuck stiff and unmoving.

i'm missing something.

  4. this is it. this is it.
    these are the places I will always go.
    you know the song Down in the Valley by The Head and the Heart? this post reminds me of it kind of.
    (and i'm not sure why)
    but it's just so achingly beautiful and the words you've arranged are singing a song
