Pages
Haunted feelings carried by
Wings of night as shadows fly
Drip drop words from pages then
Feed the fire like oxygen
Muffled voices through the door
Phrases heard once long before
Rhythm opened eyes now see
Lost forgotten parts of me
Black on white then white again
Ghostly paths to where I’ve been
Keys then press themselves to say
Things I want to hide away
Lowered hands at last let go
Worried worlds lie far below
Rising vantage ever on
Poem by poem and song by song
Dusted dancing leads to lead
Fast descent to slumber’s bed
Dawn of light and break of day
Melts the night mist fast away
But drifting silent to the floor
Are pages…as they were before
…Jeff Bresee
