Keep Art Alive :: “Forge” :: Art by Kelly Vivanco

“And I felt her devastation,
we were lost in the fight,
and I knew I couldn’t leave her,
I would love her thru the night…”

yet still
by me

miles away
different time zones
countries divided
not just these endless state lines
yet still we connect

my lower-case catastrophe
the smell of petals spread like wildfire
swirling around me
as I drown in a caffeinated
wake-up call

I miss you seems too heady
with sentiment and wishings
but you know that I do
regardless of all that happens
despite that ticking of time

days away
different last names
hearts dividing
not just these collapsing last words
yet still we connect
