Keenly Felt
Choice friendships deeply pierce the heart; / Both pain and pleasure keenly felt.

mercury falling
outer cold / exceeds my inner heat; / I never know what shape to take.

I Did Not Die.
confidence climbs / and I dare to defy gravity / day / by / day / by / day.

The surgical saw / slices smoothly

Now as Lost Days have passed me by, Eternity it stretches Forward.

The cold steals my Warmth
The cold steals my Warmth

Tick Tock
I used to prefer the peace / Of the silent sweep / Barely cognizant of the passing of time

me/Me
mechanically mesmerizing / to be A me you want see…

Remind me why I live here…

I’ve Found My Place
I’ve found my place; the place is peace, / Though tangled tempests tip the ship.

Start. again. anew.
start. again. anew. transformed again by some truth

the wheels turn
the wheels turn / and slowly the body / succumbs to the treads and the weight / of the monster it carries,

there is not enough time
in catching up on a life that was lost, I’d miss the living in front of me.
