Today and every day
I will keep watch
For subtle movements of mind
Which slowly morph
Into ripples
In the stillness
Of the surface
Of the sea
Of my mind

Those ripples
Sometimes stay small
And subside
But
They may become waves
Which lick the shore
Slowly
Eroding as they go

I must keep watch
Ripples may become waves
Which can one day become
Human Tsunamis

I will keep my mind
Ripple-free
Happy

I must keep watch

to blink
after such travesty
to watchtowers,
is like a single
slow moving crack
moving across an
iceberg, becoming
jagged in the tide–

she should
know better how to
control her flames,
not just feed
out of control, their
heights engulfing
her ceiling and walls,
stiffling–

to break free
humid restrictions
and agony, replaced
forest breath with
quartz of roses for eyes

Don't leave me I asked softly
Don't leave me because of my illness.
Don't leave me I asked softly
Don't leave me because my days are difficult.
Don't leave me I asked softly
Don't leave me because my illness is not your burden.
Don't leave me I asked softly
Don't leave me because my illness won't allow me to love you right.
Don't leave me I asked softly
Don't leave me because I still love you.
Don't leave me I asked softly
Don't leave me because I wouldn't know what to do without you.
Don't leave me I asked softly
Don't leave me because I am still so terrified.
Don't leave me I asked softly
Don't leave me because you can't deal with it.
... Wait, where are you going?
Please don't leave me I asked softly.
Don't leave me because I don't know what to do without you ...

"Hey, it's going to be okay." He whispered into my ears.You stand there with a smile on your face.
One man in my life who would never leave. He has stayed around protecting,
& who is willing to give everything and even more to his daughters and his family.

I dont know if things would ever get better for me. I'm just a person who lives on the hope that tomorrow might bring and faith is all i need. Thank you dad, I love you.
