trading time for money
energy limited resource
house built on debt
family of ghosts
hamster in a wheel
the endless run
wiped out all the
left over wits
river within its banks
carving the rocks
running its course
without fail
life like a river
seeping away
from us all
sooner than later
shaping us by the flow
nothing stays the same
only change remains
for eternity
you rock my world
you are with me
when I weep
you hold me tight
in my sleep
when I tremble
you are the closest
to my skin
at moments of sorrow
your strength I borrow
you go into the depth
of the self talk…
proud of you
cancer
valuable lesson
in herstory
connection
with the divine
being open
to release
transformed
the entirety
the life
she knew
and lived
dissipated
what emerged
from the rubble
overwhelmed
her psyche
hospitalization
ensued
silent
meditation
years passed
life returned
to new normal
never the same
awareness
broadened
her experience
unprepared for
the spiraling
into lower realms
of darkness
following highs
the light flickering
unsure unsecure
unresolved
past emotions
giving her
grief in
the present
moment
undergoing
treatment
her sanity
restored
reoccurrence
of such magnitude
the changes
persisted
the synapses
between
neurons
exploded
billion
fragments
scattered
in the brain
the soup
of consciousness
merged
and realigned
forming fractals
her new self
expanded
forever
in eternity
wordpad
the best
friend
finger tips
kiss the keys
ever so gently
pause
awaiting
sense of calm
expectation
brings
fidgeting
questions
arising
inside
time to
write
continuously
letters pouring
seemingly
unrelated
on the screen
silently
suddenly
poem
birthed
alive
the dna
of chaos
unwound
words
leap forward
into space
transformation
happens
unexpectedly
mind
of a poet
unleashed
