Maybe it’s nothing
Always has been
But whatever it is
I’d do it again
I read your poem
I got my satisfaction
I gathered some humid leafs
And violets
Blossoming there in your head.

hannah
i sent a leaf
down the river
it was easier than
folding paper boats
and
swimming
upstream

i watched it leave
down the river
it said goodbye
father rock
mother tree
and
cascaded
downstream

Rain
Life feels too heavy.
Too many worries.
Too many pressures.
Too many responsibilities.
Too many hardships.
Pain.
Despair.
Hope turns to despair.
Happiness turns to numbness.
Calmness turns to pain.

Too fast.
So bleed.
Bleed.
Bleed.
Till everything is silent.
But it’s not silent.
It’s not working.
Making me panic.
Why isn’t it working?
Jesus has risen,
Rejoice, He told us He would,
Promised, just did it!
Feedback welcome.

Thinking

I’m always thinking about

Every word you say
To me

I scrutinize, dissect, gut

Every word you say
To me

I’m thinking that maybe
I’m over-thinking

Every word you say
To me

Maybe I need

To
Just
Silence
your
voice.
Heartfelt and true. Thanks for listening. Whose voice is it? Probably mine.
