Poems
Dec 2016
Castaway on the Island of Me
In the dark shadows
I live and lurk
searching for what I need to survive
looking for an outlet
another soul to touch
Long lost island
quarantined feeling
never visited
except by tsunamis of self-doubt
hoping for the winds of change
The falling coconuts of despair
I consume their flesh
in hopes making myself whole
acceptable for rescue
and return to life
Wild boar thoughts
gore me, as they roam
wild and free
damaged and injured
I sit, alone, on my island
