where the wild flowers grow

in this room,
there are
too many moments
that i remember

being
myself....

when you kissed me
i asked
my faded whispers
not
to forget...

i begged and
screamed
to gods that
answer not...

..prayers
dilute
my existence
slowly, yet
i
am perpetually
on my knees.

it was when i saw the light,
i concluded..

the shadows
are what give me substance.

Into every yang, some yin does fall.

We are all made up of sun and shadow. At times the shadows offer us solemnity and quietude that may be needed for the moment. However, living there could prove to be problematic.

You are a wondrously expressive poetess.
