Who Am I? – Sculpted

Who am I? On what level? When I look in the mirror What do I see? Who looks back at me? Can I see with closed eyes? Do I scream? When I look in the mirror Is it me that I see? Or just a figment, my imagination When I see me Who am IContinue reading “Who Am I? – Sculpted”

Solitude

A delusion of emptinessSitting alone By myself in a crowd Listening to each single drop of rainIn a storm Beating against the window searching to get inI say hello Only to have the echoes ghost meI sit alone In a crowded café As the stormRages outside Waiting for you.

Tilting Away & Towards The Sun

I look outside my windowSnow falls downLike the down feathers of the fleeing geese gone for winterCold bites through me as I turn away from the sunThe dance remains the same from millenia to milleniaAs we dance through the cosmos revolving one around the otherI circle you yet it is coldest when I am closer.IContinue reading “Tilting Away & Towards The Sun”
