misplaced bones.

the last day we spoke your words took me apart and when you left i had to pick up the pieces and bury my bones outside in the yard.    its been three years and to this day i haven't been able to put myself all the way back together. somehow, every time i think i've managed to, i discover that some  bones are still missing, hidden deep in the ground.   maybe one day i'll get a metal- detector in the form of a dog, to help me find all the hidden pieces in the earth out back, because i don't seem to be having any luck myself.

glow in the dark stars.

I. when i was seven years old my ceiling was littered with tiny, magnificent, glow in the dark stars. shining protectors pasted to the walls keeping the monsters hidden deep in the closet and far under the bed. II. when i turned thirteen years old i replaced the 'childish' glow in the dark stars with a singular, beautiful dreamcatcher which hung directly above my head; capturing the dreams and repelling bad spirits from manifesting as nightmares.

III. now at the age of twenty-one i sleep in a room with empty walls. blank canvases patiently waiting for a discovery of self and the splashes of life that come with it; however, there are nights when the moon and the howling of the coyotes are my only companions that i cant help but miss those wonderful, comforting, glow in the dark stars and the simple innocence that is only known in youth.
