Pieces of Me

Words
on a screen
my conduit
a vessel
unfurling
the madness
of my mind
and the depth
of my heart.

Resplendence

She emerges
from shadows
color-bursting
into the great
wide world
with aged wisdom
and new birth
communing.

Reality Check

Blinders off
it is time to see
the world
exactly as it is
past the sunshine
and shadows
eyes wide open
the reality
far more terrifying
and beautiful
than the warped
perceptions
you have known
for far too long.

Learning to Grow

The opposite of me
this going on faith
believing that
I am not
so easily forgotten.
Hard to balance
remaining myself
and learning
to grow.

Doubt

Missing you
and your unexpected
light.
Though my heart
knows
you are never
far away
my head
begs to differ.

Lost and Found

Lost
broken and paralyzed
until light
pierces darkness.
Metamorphosis.
Finally
she emerges
loved and free
finally found.

For M

In just

the right moment

under just

the right circumstance

coincidence

or is it fate

lets darkness

meet darkness

and create

unimaginable light.

Robin

A tainted mind soars
into a painted sky on
angels' wings, now free.

RIP Robin Williams
