A rustle on the leaves
A shimmer on the surface
A brush on my face
You undermine my tension
In the subtlest of ways

Elemental
It’s elemental
The way we go together
Like fire and ice
The silkiest steam
No More
Terrified no more
(Just slightly anxious)
Sunlight
Does the anxiety-wracked body good
(Calms the nerves a bit)
Into my depths of black
Glowing serenity spins
(I think I mean you)
Solar
It holds the hills
Summer blades emblazoned
Glow of gentle grace
Warmth on winter’s face
Sol
Soulful
Now simply a star
Staled by study
Aten toppled
Man’s myth marred
Sol
Soulless
Down
A long, long way down
Memories like a well
Leagues under the soil
History knows no bottom
I’ve seen the roots
Watered them with my tears
I’ve risen with them from the dirt
I know my origins
The place of my birth
My coming of age
Not of physicality
But of self and worth
You were there
Watering the soil I lay under
Pulling me to push through
Into a brighter, warmer world
I’m always down
For you
Beyond
There’s comfort in familiarity
That is deceiving
There’s joy in nostalgia
That is entrapping
I’m a particle in a wave
That will move beyond it all
Distance
You may be distant
But you aren’t pointless
Detachment is a symptom
Of a beautiful soul
Writing
You write about lost love
I write about dying friendships
And chaotic nerves
Dive
Take a dive
Immerse yourself in art and expression
Floating gently
In the human soul
Entryways and Exits
Balancing
Between panic and panic
Just beyond reach
Crystalline portals
To new worlds
Beyond this one
Of heart rates and clenching
They take the forms
Of night skies
Dancing fields
Miniature hands
Shooting stars
Freckles faces
Celestial sounds
Always visible
Always audible
Always unattainable
Both escape and entrapment
Entryways and exits
