Brave Enough

Light goes thin,
but something shifts within;
I wish I were brave enough to know.

Silence stabs,
like I’d said something wrong;
I wish I were brave enough to speak.

Voices rise,
all claiming to be right;
I wish I were brave enough to think.

wrapped me in snug warm wool

I Exist

to be rescued from this icy place

Deep Black Eyes

while my moist lips trembled

Tearful Eyes

dulled my mind and left my soul despaired
