Night
A still dark night
Leaves me alone
To ponder thoughts,
My fears.
Consumed by anxiety
I hear the buzz of silence –
That hum when all is still
A connection, maybe
With the world that cannot be seen
The dimension that is above
The natural world
Where our loved ones wait
Patiently to welcome us
And outside a cricket
Chirps.
Envy
I want what you have
Without knowing the full price
That needs to be paid
I Love You
I love you in darkness
I love you in light
I love you in daytime
And all through the night
I love you in winter
I love you in fall
I love you in summer
And right through it all –
You are the one for me
You help my heart mend
I love you forever
I love you, my friend
Bluebottle
I know you know best
But I promise you this
Always avoid
A bluebottle’s kiss!
enough
it wasn’t enough
that i had all i ever dreamed of
it wasn’t enough
that i had
a partner
a child
a home
it wasn’t enough
that i was always employed
always healthy
always having a place to go
it wasn’t enough
that i never had
one day of hunger
one night of cold
one day of heat
one night of wanting
one day of going without
the heart is always hungry
always wanting
always craving
always demanding
always seeking
always dreaming
always wishing
nothing was
nothing is
nothing ever will be
Enough.
When enough is never enough
When enough is never enough –
Endlessly caught up
Chasing dreams
Chasing winds
Chasing leaves falling
Off trees
Time slips past
Days follow dawns
Until one final long
Goodnight
Note to Self
Too much dessert
Is a fail –
No resistance
(I feel ill)
Changing my Mind
I used to think tenacity was good.
Now I think, it is not enough.
I used to think my courage would see me through.
Now I think, it is not enough.
I used to think I could do it all.
Now I ask, will I even start?
I used to think my life was worth my breath
Now I pray, help me survive this day.
