Tendrils of Credence – January 23, 2020
Bubbles of ice Stretching As far as the temperature Drops, Leaving nothing untouched And Accepting its reach.
Take Heed – January 22, 2020
I try to explain The direness Of it all My head Falls Softly to my chest The tears Can’t help But roll away Your lack of life Halts the ability To take in What I am floating And I worry Because This Is all we have
Brokenheartedness – January 22, 2020
I lay down my head My heart breaks ~~~ I open my eyes My heart breaks ~~~ There is not an inkling of time That traipses by ~~~ My heart doesn’t break

You surely remember You died that day too I think in a way we all did But life went on And here I am Trying to remember The things put down Only if I knew How impossible it would be To pick them back up. Yes, I’m sad she is gone But that is not … Continue reading By a Thread – January 14, 2020
Never Alone – January 9, 2020

Bouncing – December 28, 2019
The darkness Holds my hand Bouncing in circles ~~~ Quietly screaming For me to let go ~~~ Closing in Breathing Out ~~~ Frolicking And dancing ~~~ Spinning in circles Plucking my brow To shape the mood ~~~ Out of the darkness I let go ~~~ As the circles bounce Away So far away ~~~ Gone … Continue reading Bouncing – December 28, 2019
So Many Stars – January 6, 2020
Pacing Looking out All the meat Passing by Feeling my heart thump faster Even though I’m standing still Ten licks forward, ten licks back Nowhere to go Yet, I’ve been here before Eyes I see so many eyes Drooping and wide open I wonder...

See me; Through my tears Past the nit picky Into the deep Down Deep Valley Beyond the shadows Where the light creeps Up Hitting and Cracking the Layers Upon layers Of cut down Rings Left standing alone Ignored and forgotten Until everything Is all gone And people wonder why There is nothing to breathe Nothing … Continue reading What’s Left, In Front of You – January 1, 2020
Talking to you…My bite 1/3/20
A fellow griever (Nikki Pennington) posted a poem this morning, Miss Me, But Let Me Go by Edgar Albert Guest. I was instantly conflicted. I’m fed up with how I feel, and wish more than anything I could “let it go,” but it’s just NOT that simple for me. At the same time, I know … Continue reading Talking to you…My bite 1/3/20

You, in the Background – December 26, 2019
Thank you, For keeping me Standing up tall There are days My limbs Seem so heavy It’s hard to do Or be Helping to lift me Where I needed Right here Pointing in a direction Something I couldn’t always see Kept me moving on Constantly How many times I wanted to break Shattering At my … Continue reading You, in the Background – December 26, 2019
