I lost you in the quietest way possible. Without a fight, without a goodbye, just a slow fading of something I still wake up reaching for.

OK, Connecticut...what gives?

I moved here and then you have the coldest winter in years? Plus a blizzard?

I would have been fine with a "Welcome to New England" sign.

I used to live in the area where they filmed Harold and Maude. I loved being someplace and suddenly realizing "Oh, this is the place Harold was doing somersaults."

If you've never seen "Harold and Maude" you must watch it immediately. IMHO, it's one of the greatest love stories ever put on film.

It's hard to imagine a world without Rev. Jesse Jackson in it.

Cold settles into the quiet spaces
where you used to be.
Snow gathers on the windowsill
like words you never said.
I reach for you, but only feel
a stretch of winter air.
Nights are heavy with
the weight of your absence.
I miss you most when the world's
white & there's no one left to hold.

Woke up with this sentence bouncing around in my head...
"I knew you weren’t mine, but I still loved you in the spaces where hope and restraint quietly collide."

I don’t ask for promises,
or certainty,
or a future written in ink.

I only ask that you
stay still long enough
to let my love reach you
and trust me to hold
what you carry, gently.
