I write
then delete
sometimes I shred
and repeat
Never once knowing  
the right words
that will give you peace

Headspace
with a headache
head in the clouds
always in a daze
dazzled by life
until the lights fade

Still in the clouds
still in a daze
however filtered through a darker haze.  

Headspace
I space out
when I come back,
It's past my bedtime
but there's something about
watching clouds roll by
that makes me think,
Life may not be so bad.

When I'm feeling sad
I don't tell you.
You notice anyway that I'm not being myself.
You don't push me to say what's bothering me or where
my head is lately.
Instead, you wait patiently for me to be ready.
And in the meantime,
you bake me cookies.

Body of water
you love the way it moves
feel it grow stronger
as the sun sets
Dark skies and bright moon
invite you to rest
but you feel alive
as the world sleeps

Waves crashing into rocks
making a roaring sound
captured in slow motion
deep within your mind
Dark skies and the blue moon
invite you to gaze
at the stars up above
until your troubles fade
