Sleep Eludes Me

sleep eludes me
this cold spring night
cats meowling just before light of dawn
I set outside in m dark heavy sweater
the air is cold and damp the dark clings as I walk the yard
restless I think of a proper walk
instead I stand in the yard
listening


Like Dark Sunglasses

.


The suspicious mind, 
like dark sunglasses, 


    even on a sunny day,
    projects its own tint, 

    paints its own distrust 
    on everyone around,

    seeing you and me   
    as mere dark shadows 


of its own dark image 
and shadowy likeness.

.

The Dwelling

In this very deep dark place
Where all my secrets dwell
I’ve gathered many memories
Some which I’ll never tell

Memories of love long lost
Memories of hope
Memories of yesterday
And things with which to cope

Always adding something
More and more each day
To this cavernous, deep, dark place
Always locked away
