I Step Into A Wish

I am on a quest for happiness. Pain,

the contours of skin—you

remind me solace returns anew. 

The center, a locus of control unmade, fragile and fraught. I 

step into a wish, protection’s umbrella—

cleansing. Humanity’s sins, I struggle 

to be me again.

Boundlessly Episodic

I am meaning, subject in object. The background to the silently chaotic. Mystery’s presence of the boundlessly episodic.

Shadow Sky

I am a sky tinged in shadows. The absence of color, a cloud’s pain— gentle tears with whitewashed edges. A horizon’s bleakness and a feelings abyss. It is the sorrow of love, my final wish.

The Minister of Dark Nights

I retrieve the pain gifted to me. 

It is a friend and foe. The minister

of dark nights told my soul.

The Light Within the Dark

Love and loss, the light within 

the dark. A silhouette of humanity 

are shadows among the stars.

Subtle Silence in Action

I am a dreamed reality and seed of possibility—happiness. An awareness of presence. Subtle silence in action, chaos subdued.

A Pain Wayfarer

I am a pain wayfarer. A choice of love and the companionship of isolation. Alienated and alone, I seek solace in the gift of peace and the sanctuary built upon my dreams.

Depression chose me

Depression chose me. It seeks in fun

typically impossible to outrun. Once 

the sun dips, darkness sits 

on the edge of my bed, wondering 

when I’ll come out to play next.

Rainbows Speak

Rainbows speak through stained glass, sparking like diamond sand. A shower of elegance and beauty, a prism of life’s richness. Patterns folded over space and time, the realization of the universe wide.
