Hold, Holding, Held

10/29/2021

 
Picture
Outside I can see
A refreshing world waits for me

She speaks
She sings stories

An invitation to explore
I could go where I’ve never gone before
There are no expectations
Nowhere to be
Nothing to do
Anything I wish to see

Even as I depart from her
She leaves a piece
​|  held  |
In my soul

She is my home

Clouded Place

10/28/2021

 
Picture
Behind the blank stare of your eyes
We sit in a stale silence

I watch time go by
Some days you come to me and cry
Longing to be recognized

Pressed against
The bitterness of your tongue
Your negativity fills the room
Again… on and on…
|  I struggle to breathe  |
Your harsh words sting
The room is buzzing with negativity

It used to feel so good in your embrace
But now I feel like I’m in a strange place

I hide behind my screen
to sneak away before I’m seen
