Words on a blank page
Connecting, reaching, feeling
Ignored, but exist.
Fear holds words silent.
Isolation is preferred
Avoid connection.
Be alone, it’s safe.
Except for the mirrored soul
That only seeks love.
Love’s waiting outside.
You’re knocking from the inside.
Let the door open.
Saw your face faintly.
Tried to look closer, couldn’t.
Thick fog settles in.
Warm breeze blows my hair,
A lover’s breath teasing me,
Gentle summer dreams.
Paint the deck, mow grass,
My house is clean, up and down.
Faking OCD.
Why does the wind blow
So fiercely on a chilled heart?
Desolation aches.
Flying high above
Thinking of all that lay below
Love in many forms.
Rose petals floating
On summer breezes unseen
Sacred scents fill my heart.
In limbo waiting
At the airport for a flight
Neither here nor there.
Circling the center
Around, around you spin me
Keeping safe distance.
You, in the center
Me, tethered to you with cords
Trying to break free
Of endless spinning
I can’t go left, nor go right
Can I just let go?
I loose the tight grip
Of one hand, then the other.
Letting go, I am free.
The love of sisters
And our kids fills the morning
Sweet warm mountain air.
