Lost Soul
I was lost.

For years
I was in my own world,
off doing my own thing,

didn't want to be saved,
never mentioned his name.

I was lost.

Made it out
of some things
because my steps 
were still guided.

And I...

Saturday flings
Sensorial pleasures;
Refreshing rain

~~~~~~~~~


A gift of somnolence
Moments on a breeze;
Drowsy airy feel

Beyond these silk curtains
An uncertain world;
Looking not seeing

~~~~~~~~~


Daughter's simple hair braids
Charming sight to see;
Wavy murmurings

~~~~~~~~~


Stroll by this old shop
Ancient owner smiles;
Dialect greeting nods

~~~~~~~~~


Faces in...

Hear the buzz
Do not disturb
The hornet's nest


Don't cross the line
Where right turns wrong
And tact criminal


The path is set
Each to a fate
At many fork roads


There will be time
For frustration to blame
Guilt and regret


Be steady now
While you...

These entities are never seen, nor speak a word
Though they communicate in a way, never heard
They prey upon feelings of fear, anger and pain
They find you, when you are weak to fight again
