SG Holter
Woman of the day
93 on the news
Strong eyes
Awake Present
Smiling from hospital
Bed when asked if
She could
Forgive the
Two men who broke in
Hit her
Robbed her
Left her in her own old blood

Yes Yes I do I think about
Them

I am here
You are there
Between us
Lies an ocean

A darkening
An overwhelming
A never ending
Hurting pain

If I could take it
Take and drain it
Make it go away
You know I would

Let my arms be your sea
My heart the deepest ocean
Let me drown your sorrow
If only for a little while.

If
I could keep writing you poems you'll never read

Or I could put my pen down and bandage my own heart

Either way, I would still lose because I wouldn't have you

My life
is made up of
interesting lives.
People that seem
to always be in
motion, doing
and experiencing life
and all that it offers.
I merely sit and observe
from behind the railings,
Yearning to join in,
But having not the courage
That would be needed to
Step away from my life
Into the one I wish I had.
