Mar 2014
In the tranquil dim light
stillness befalls my worried mind
the many irrational thoughts
escape and fluently drift away

Through a placid expanse of-nothingness
each our hour runs together
no clocks herald a unified chime

Peacefully now detached
from this unfamiliar shell
what do you wish for?
a dedication to love?
an oral drug?

Would it suffice and please
to hear the word cried out
in a dramatic exclamation
or thespian tone?

Do you want to feel it in your center?
being guided within an untouched
organic world
not your own

No confusion, lust, or shallow trust
but rather something dormant
lying within before your birth

Growing as a child
ragged with green knees
from climbing trees

A misty eyed girl, clapping as the room
darkens to sing the birthday tune

Timeless
resplendent memories.
