Life is a balancing act,
And those that don’t win, fall off into the chasms of the darkness …

Untitled
Undeserving of love
Or care
She cowers there
Hands clasped together
Around her tucked up knees …
Cacophony
A symphony of sound rings,
Penetrating the drums within,

Skittering around my head,
It’s lullaby calling to me, …

cowering from the light,

The water splatters joyfully on the
Window of despair, running down into
Rivers, meandering, with no care to
The pain insinuated within the room,
Sadness without expression, …

Prayer
An ocean of thoughts, hopes, fears,
Flights of ambiguity,
Questions unanswered,
A void in the soul,
A gorge separating one from another,
A heart divided, …

A long way down, she said. Yes.
