Poems
May 2018
Strangers change
A familiar stranger
knocked on my door
and asked "Are you the one
I've known before?"
The face of this heart
It stared at me
Through my net of
pain and disharmony
I'm here it's me
I scream in despair
don't leave me
for I'm still in here.
Let me in she said
I am the one you knew
You see we have
lots of work to do.
To fix the wounds
the tears and tatters
to rest and talk
Nothing else matters.
I relented with tears
admitting the pain
to grow and repair
So that I remain
Much time we spent
together you see
Getting to know each other
myself and me.
I'll never let
the world take away
Myself again
NOT TODAY!
When we put our worth into others we get lost.
