Shedding

Shedding my skin again
Dust off my bones
Beginning again

Crawl out of the cocoon
See new light
I will spread my wings soon

Wake from hibernation
Wipe sleep from my eyes
I’m a whole new creation

Crack open the shell
Taste newly fallen rain
It is time I prevail

Jenovah Feb 2023

Smothered

I was a flame you fed
and burned too brightly;
Until you smothered me to ashes

Cups

Empty cups on string
I play pretend; ring ring!
I whisper “hello”
Just for fun…
But then I run

…Someone whispered back

Jenovah Aug 2022

Sometimes

Sometimes sadness
Embraces me
Like an old friend

Jenovah Jul 2022

Grasp

Reaching outward
Fingers spread
Like a wing

The primitive fruit
Just beyond grasp

A worm surfaces
whom which a bird plucks;
For the fruit is
In its reach

I am envious

Sun

When I say
that you are my Sun,
I don’t mean that you are
Luminous,
Brilliant,
Gilded,
Beautiful,
Bold,
Warm,
Or even the center of my universe.
I simply mean that
I cannot look at you
Without hurting
