Phoenix Rising

As I was saying ...

I do not wish to re-write the story of us
When "do not" means
reconstructing it
is way beyond our hands
many things of good and bad
this love cannot undo
the many dreams
though not dead
still unrealized.

and yet remains
the many words
between us
unuttered
again how do we unsay
of things of beauty ... and joy
... and love
when to each other
we haven't said and heard.

as i have made my peace last night
i have three hundred
and sixty five days to spend
to start a new story
from fresh pages
of a life apart
and a life together.


Beautiful begins.
Today.
