Try a little tenderness…
The world grows harsh and cold
with every click and tick
of tech and clock and sands
slipping through our hands
fall to the ground
without a sound
no whimper
no moan
alone
trampled by the cruel heel of Apathy..
the Forgotten

Somewhere~
in the silent breath twixt unconcious bliss
and first morning light’s dewy kiss
my soul stands still,
my mind’s free will
unfettered by the constraints
of cruel convention,
what strange dimension
of perfect comprehension,
the bliss of awakening.
Gone the phantasm of night,
its war of demons driven back
by crystal shards of daylight~
my heart softly weeps
for the memory sleeps
on within its cell,
magic’s darkest spell
lingering,
fingering
the rusty keys,
tormenting,
unrelenting.
The choice my own,
the seeds were sown
so long ago.
How could I know
such sweet fruit
would wither, rotten
in the garden of the forgotten,
where silence is not golden
but deafeningly black and blue~
It waits there for you.

Every night I say a prayer….
What we hold in the palm of our hands,
delicate gift, the heart understands.
What we possess but forget
in the wake of regret
withers in shadow
of doubt.
Fragrant remains of desire,
kindling for funeral pyre,
The bits that you clutch,
have so numbed your touch,
while faint memory lingers
I slip through your fingers
as dust in the wind
and no way to mend
the bridge that once
called you a friend.
Forgotten.
