I’m Supposed To Hurt

I was getting ready to share my feelings;
and had just returned home from work;
wracked with pain; my body was reeling;
I’ve lived 78 years; I’m supposed to hurt.

I’ve lived several lifetimes; rolled into one;
I know how pain feels;

Telling Earth Goodbye

A picture may be worth a thousand words;
tho words will never fade away;
pictures can wound like a thousand swords;
then, death brings another new day.

All pictures require the illusion of light;
while thoughts often reveal nothing;
all pictures die in the darkness of night;

Alone And Unloved

A Late Life Crush

What is it that causes a mind to wander;
magnetically drawn to what we miss

Two souls joined together from now on;

Distracted Walking

Our mind is always paying attention;
even when it seems distracted;

with conscious awareness redacted.

It really doesn’t take much to turn our ear;
and present reality to pass away;
thoughts, ranging from love to fear;
or thoughts of another day.
