burning bush

Jess on February 23, 2004

i used to only be poetic
when i was falling
in love with you.
but my hands have fallen
in love with the
sky, earth, trees.
you may be gone
but a burning bush
at sunrise
assured me
“it’ll be alright.”
still, i just
hurt.

    i wish i could stop the hurt for you. i wish i could take you away from all the pain. but id probably just end up causing you more…i love you.
