honeysuckle
finally a quiet
place
to grieve
Tiffany Shaw-Diaz
scent of pine away from the
hustle
Tiffany Shaw-Diaz
*
until
i can no longer mourn this dried up river
Tiffany Shaw-Diaz
*
avalanche
when i gaze
into
my past
Tiffany Shaw-Diaz
*
winter
but i am always
ravenous
Tiffany Shaw-Diaz
*
then
watch me dissolve into the cosmos
Tiffany Shaw-Diaz
dewdrop
all i want
is
to be soft
Tiffany Shaw-Diaz
*
when
i close my eyes all the stars
