The Baggage We Carry
A life of things. Material and meaningless objects. I know that the contents are trivial but what am I without the case? What have I to show for myself and my life? A pack of cigarettes I stow, as I feel that I cannot live without them. The case is nearly empty now, holding only the most...

Premium Member A Dream Reminder to Let Go and Stay on Track
In a dream, beneath Columbus' watchful gaze, Where the capitol’s dome with the blue heavens waltz, Strolling alongside the Governor, in harmonious ways, Our footsteps chanced upon the city's hidden vaults. Dusk beckoned, a murmur urging us to roam, Cleveland, my home, through the fantasy did thread, First adrift, then guided by heart back home, A train missed, the voyage's lament, a...

The traffic light delayed us both Me driving my car She driving her cart. The traffic direction changed, rotated, making black eyes spark annoyed as her walk signal failed to appear, shrunken mouth twisting crooked ‘neath her frowned brow as roughly she retreated, Bang-bang banging her fist against the shiny...

I Lost My Emotional Baggage Switching Planes of Consciousness
I reached a point in life where I was so disillusioned, in my head there was nothing but chaos and confusion I had trunkloads of trouble piled up like rubble, and suitcases stuffed with so much sorrow, I couldn't see my way to tomorrow My emotional baggage was overflowing with bad news Shall we say I had issues? My luggage was filled to...

Premium Member The Holiday
The Holiday I looked on the net for a holiday To visit somewhere picturesque And escape the mundaneness of life Just me, the car, and the wife. We priced up guest houses, hotels Would it be the lakes, mountains or fells? A cheap, luxurious getaway, of four days However far you run, your baggage stays After hours of pondering ums and ahs We couldn’t decide,...

My baggage had at last caught up with me. It and I had parted ways some years past; tossed out and thrown away the master key. But here it is, returned; the die is cast. It had been round the carrousel before; I saw it once or twice but never claimed. Now, suddenly arrived at my front door; I'm here, I'm back,...

Reborn here now without baggage A soul so free to act on whim A path so new my eyes salvage The end, the edge, my self’s give in Horrid past, unwanted future Reborn here now without baggage Looming cold and distant creatures Sold body to prying lament Closed all doors so none will turn page From behind or beyond, not...
