White Noise
I end the year feeling achy.This has been a time Filled with much personal growthIt’s hard work to look in the mirrorAnd understand my patterns.Connect the dots of the pastSo I no longer feel numb.My emotions I suppressed for so long.I can be so mean to myself-A subconscious habit that becameWhite noise in my brainContinue reading “White Noise”
Ocean View
I take the ocean view homeLess people, no stop lightsMost nights, the coast is darkLike a stage play in-between actsExcept on nights like thisWhere the moon is fullAnd the view is stunningly clearIn the particular light The clouds hover over the waterLike puffs of smokeThe salt water mirrors the sky onlyWaves adding ripples to theContinue reading “Ocean View”
Christmas Lights Chilly Nights
Christmas lightsChilly nightsLong winded conversations Through telephone callsTrying to make senseOf the complexities Human nature has to offerHow the mind copes In mysterious waysI remain grateful For twinkling lightsContrasting a pale pink skyAnd a beautiful moonBringing me back toThe present when I lose sight

Mundane Details
