Mood for Thought
Erin Riley Apr 2020
In reality,
whether
our eyes
are opened
or closed,
we are
always
dreaming.

The Truth About Balance
Erin Riley Apr 2020
Our bodies
run around all day
while our minds
try to catch up all night.

Her Water
Erin Riley Apr 2020
Mirror, mirror,
How do I see past this?

Look,
This reflection
is only a surface
to scratch.
Instead,
Dive into the
depth that’s
staring back.

Give pause
to your rush.

Catch up
with those places
that keep trying
to reach you.

Maybe the
routine is what
needs to be
unraveled to
wind up in
your ordinary.

Because
whatever
signs you’re
following,
we’re all
just trying
to find a way
back home.
