I scratched
my soul
furiously
onto white pages
an incessant search
to find its center
the core
of where I know
must be hidden
the real me

Lost
When You Can’t Find Your Way
Where do you run when you can’t find your way?
Every direction calling, barking different reasons to pull you.
Or worse, no sound at all–no options. And you puddle in the center.
Many days inner me screams with need for flight to freedom.
Yet I don’t really know where that is.
And I simply hear no voice to follow.

In the Wings
Lost in time
where every second
seems like a hundred years
waiting, watching
the struggle for love
and a life
gone missing somehow
and all I can do
is be there
standing in the wings
ready
if he calls my name

Whiskey Escape
Through a haze
of burning gold whiskey
she swam
into the night
trying to escape
the clutches of a love
that was not hers

No Answer
Lost in the rain’s shiver
wandering through
my mind
searching
calling
crying out
for the one thing
that keeps me sane
and there is
no answer

Drowning
I sit here
drowning in thoughts
pulling me under
against my will
I didn’t invite them
to be here
univited guests
need to leave
so I can swim
back to the surface
and breathe
my next day

Just Stop
Haven’t been here for a while
Life and things calling
But words have never stopped
My head awhirl in too many of them
Sometimes I just have to stop
Or I will fall off an edge
And never find myself
