a dropped shoe

The shoe dropped, 

she watched it fall, 

heard the snap on the hardwood floor. 

It landed upright,

laces still tied,

and sat there looking up . 

The other shoe never dropped,

 it fell before it making it through the door. 

simplicity

the ease of a smile,
  the simple happiness,
    the way we connect;
    the way they connect,
      the conversation,
        the simplicity of us
 is what makes us, genuine

just around the corner

A long walk down a hallway
it's walls painted white,
trim the color of a rusting swing.
 I follow the tiled floor,
cold and uninviting.
The open door comes into sight.
 A single glimpse shows me
your eyes into the World.
 I don't see you,
 just glimmers of who you are.
