I need to write you tangible thoughts
Touch you in a new way
The distance is too great for a close embrace
As the hours pass and the minutes fade, is it all worth the unbearable wait
Reminiscing the moments that caught us by surprise
Never did I imagine you and I
Never did I dream, you could take up this cloud of space in my mind
Young body, old soul
Will this high be extinct, just a vapor in mid air
Or will the stars align... so I can see clear

Reaching Out
I promise her. I'd do anything for her. She's my mom. Even as Lanie and Deanna are flying home, Mom is scrappy fighting dying. She lays too still in that too-big bed with all the toasty white hospital blankets, in the south tower, at the broad end of a long slow-turning corner that delivers me again to her private room with the view she can't see through, with the beeping that tells us nothing new, and all these ice chips she can't swallow, and a flood of well-intentioned nurses who cannot do a damned thing all the same.
