dichotomy

i spent all night tossing in my bed

torn between my heart and head

what he wants is not so clear

am i just sport or is he sincere

 

the sun rises

and beneath its outstretched arms

a world awakens slowly

taking in the warmth and glow

gently  rubbing its eyes

to look out the window

bathed in the sun's glory

lives ready to open

autumn

the autumn and its mysteries surround her as she walks......leaves dancing slowly by her feet, waiting for those that remain on the trees, to join them...the sky has a mystical magical visage, even in it chillier moments, the warm smell that emanates,all around.....she continues on her stroll, feet gently nudging the leaves beneath them....eagerly inhaling every scent the air transmits to her.....

fear

the scarey thing about having fear

with it your thoughts are never clear

it blinds all logic, destroys all sense

immobilization its sustenance

ive lived this way for so long now

i want to change...i dont know how

 

 

 

heartstop

this thing in my chest that beats so fast

knows nothing good in life will last

and yet it opens loud and wide

to let someone else look deep inside

why bother keep it closed i say

perhaps that is the only way

 

 

 

refuge

the little girl looked for a place

where she could hide her

wounded face

a place of safety

warmth and care

a place that never

existed

anywhere

and so her refuge never found

she felt so lost and

run aground

 

the wind shifted

the wind had blown warmly and in her direction, and in this glow, she happily stood....then she felt  a change in the breeze that had once surrounded her...it no longer enveloped her as it turned sharply colder and distanced itself ....she went back inside and closed the door.
