Mind’s Eye

for Dan…

 

i saw you today.

in my mind’s eye, I caught a glimpse.

Until Next Time…

to Rose…

 

You leave today.

Dragging memories and colors behind you.

Glitter on water

and sun-kissed skin sits before you.

Peace

the world passed me by today.

standing in the middle. not moving.

Testimony

I see you. I know you. I hear you. I was you. Blinded by the way I was. Going through life feeling the way I did, doing the things I did. Thinking I was a good person, I was going somewhere. People liked me and if they didn’t I tried so hard to know why. And try. Try to fit in to whatever it was that would ensure they would like me. It didn’t matter what it was. I was always striving.

if only I could learn not to care.

how much easier

my life would be.

not to be so moved, affected, hurt

by the things of this world.

Eclipse

I visited darkness today.

not total, yet partial.

an eclipse in my mind,

going through hallways.

Dead Crickets Hopping

Little crickets hopping.

Unaware they’ve been given a death sentence.

Such a cruel and unusual punishment.
