How Long Is "Awhile"?




I'll just be gone "awhile", I'll see you in "awhile", "We'll talk again in "awhile".

It's been "awhile" since I disturbed my dreams and dusted off my memories. Tears pour down my face like dewdrops melting off of a sun-dripped rose.

Today the grass pretended to be green, the trees were budless though left in the shadow of a cruel winter they still looked half awake.

I could set my clock by sound of birds chirping for food or perhaps just happy that the sun is shinning.

I have my work cut out for me this year. Limbs, landscaping, the pool, bills and more bills but after "awhile" I feel like the only one that contributes.

I look forward to vacations and learning something new. I aim to visit Indiana and photograph all that is true.

Ramblings and babble. Do I really let anyone into my head?

I remember this kind of love. The love that spins you around when you dance, the love that tickles your smile into laughter and causes a calmness when you lay pressed flesh to flesh.

There's a sadness today although the sun is shinning and after "awhile" I'll just cry myself to sleep.
