I hope you’ve all had a great week! I’m a bit under the weather this morning, but nothing some rest and meds won’t fix. Here’s a newer, free verse poem that I thought you might enjoy.
Jagged:
I love you
in fifteen-second bursts
that feel like dreams
to those of us who
remember how
Do you know
that kind of longing?
The kind
That sets souls
to searching
the pages of books
and unfamiliar hands?
Those of us who do
almost always return
empty-handed
Just as I am now, here,
in the long shadow
of your love
-Brandon White
