An old memory
of beautiful music
tainted by the knowledge
that the skill was learned
under duress.

I refuse to be a filler*
Even if the room is all dark
and space retreats from corners
I am not an inbetween
of feelings and cat calls
so don't place me
in the remaining jigsaw
the edges won't fit
you must have shaven the curves
back before I sung with nerve
now I am jagged and anew
eroded by all the hurt
it's a new shape,  a new me
was I ever supposed to be
*part of your pieced story?
Letting go
Eriko Mar 2016
I love the morning dew
yawning baby yellow
new beginnings to follow
a dawn to call my own

I love the settling shadows
waning magnificent glimmers
warm by the fireside
stories yearning to be retold
a dusk to let go
My favorite times of day

10w
two dimples yawning
dormant far too long
earthquake spilling golden
cherish those who make you smile
it feels so good to use those muscles
smile
