Let me breathe deep
your wanton aire
filling my lungs
with the soft, supple, sweetness
...
Had they even bothered
to unearth even the slightest
of my deepest fears...
they might have known...
...
Goddess-chill my soul,
be still and bring your breath
of wonderous icy-dying dew.
Blanket my aching bones
...
Labored breath;
gasping,
grasping,
clinging to life’s thread
...
I'm not me right now, don't know who I am
could be that I'm feeling like life is a sham.
...
Today...is July 28.
Today is the day where I allow myself the hallowed indignity
of being a broken woman...and I cling to it.
...
No...
it's not with words they speak...
not that you can hear.
Their summer sun-beam message
...
Shattered dreams,
shards of glass
thin as paper leaves
scattered on the winds of change.
...
You say to look within your book
and seek my answers there.
You say if truth lies not with him
it isn't anywhere.
...
