Come Away

Come Away.jpg



My words…
Flashes of lightning
Illumining
Dark geography within you;


If you want,
You can travel with me
Through my interior streets,

Learn the melancholy
Of storms
And how to send
Thunder messages
On the wind;

You won’t always need an umbrella …

I’ve written our history in our flesh—
And engraved your name past time’s decay
in a thousand sunny days,

So take a chance, my love,
Come away,
If not today,
Then tomorrow.
