The train

The train never stopped even while the virus chose it's victims relentlessly for over two years. While it shattered hearts and broke what it could. While the rest lived in fear, of the inevitable. Naked fear, so real sometimes that it almost consumed the afraid.But the train never stopped. It went on as if hiding...

They said it would rain

They said it would rain. Everyone waited. The strongest trees to the delicate blooms. The world turning golden, the greens fast disappearing. Hope reduced to a distant rumble as the twenty fours hours ran to thousands of seconds and minutes. Stretching with no end in sight. Mother Earth cried out, begging for mercy. The streets...

Fear is as constant as the invisible symptoms that manifest itself in aches and pains.Who is the killer?Everyone talks about it, fears it but can't seem to find a solution.I'd say that fear will destroy before anything else.Where do we go from here?I wish I could fast forward to see if I get it, to...

Prisoner

The invisible bars are strongMore than what's in frontThe lines blur as does the mindFlickering and meaningless.

WORDS

She walks faster As voices drive her Falling, stumbling She runs. Static, she watches Words waiting to be free Emotions to escape She closes her eyes. Weary, she is of the constant noise that breaks the silence She desperately craves. Run, wait, watch words fight it out Silence breaks Free at last!

Fears.

One day I will be but a gravestone, And a piece of earth of negligible cost, I wonder if someone will bring me a flower And maybe whisper to me of dreams lost Indulge in some "what if's" and "If only" And maybe wipe away some frost...

Not anymore

Last night she had a dream that someone entered the house while she was sleeping and she woke up planning her escape. Fear, gnawing fear, a fear that is as constant as life. It came as a visitor but is now an unwelcome guest. It has taken away the light and fills dark thoughts. Of...

Loss

  Pain is like your friend constant and true cheering you on here to stay. They say it won't last nothing is life does your friend will too, leave when it has too. The loss is gradual the voice fades away the smiles lost an emptiness to stay. Till we meet I survive, the pain...
