Forlorn Rock
I would sit
Upon the tall rock
And listen to the gentle hum of the wind.
And for a moment-
I was sinking into myself.
Discovering foreign parts.
I felt alien to the skin I was encased in.
And yet this exoskeleton,
Was protecting me from joy.
My watery eyes gazed to a faraway land
Where my future lay, dormant.
Lifeless creeks and silence among the fauna,
As I looked into the forsaken reflection of the river.
I felt loneliness like the cold
And every fine hair stood up;
Still and frozen.
