Heather Z. Hanna Poems

Do you see what's not there?
That which you gave me is not there anymore?
Why?
Is there a reason more than neglect
...

The darkness closes in
Surrounding me in misty doubts
Forming a ever tightening web
Of whispers and fears
...

My light, my sorrow
My sorrow, my life
My life, my smile
My smile, my tears
...

Worry not
Tender Heart
Spare trouble
Never part
...

So far we've come
So far yet to go
Yet go is never promised
As is the morning sun
...

So many words have come and gone,
Passing away unsaid, unheard
Filling the mind, filling the air,
Filling nothing but lines
...

Need to Focus
Hocus, Pocus!
Study the lines
Retool, refine.
...

You said to seek things of beauty.
The rich salmon pink high in the sky behind the evening clouds
Was truly beautiful
And I thought of how high they were
...

This presence has changed me.
These feelings are new.
Yet familiar they are
But somehow they grew.
...

How can one answer the question of a friend
Who realizes there is something going on in your head?
Your demeanor, your actions are different somehow.
Perhaps they have noticed that your light has gone dim.
