A tuft of gray feathers
A pile of leaves
A collection of secrets
That no one believes
Deep in the forest
There’s barely a breeze
Just soft spoken whispers
Reflecting off trees
A squirrel, a mouse
A bear, and some deer
Each moment captured
Is like a breath of fresh air

Eloisa
A warbler whistles
Crystals and flowers in her hair
Love the morning sun
Tuning letters like strings
the words are reformed
The rhyme and the meter
the rhythm reborn

Each vowel and each consonant
together in line
No commas or periods
to block or confine

The meaning inherent
and left unexplained
restated once over
a blinding refrain

To put in the file
the future in bold
the verses in couplets
—the reading on hold

(Dreamsleep: May, 2022)
Give up your torment,  
take back your verse
tomorrow upon you
for better or worse

Take up your wishes,
give in to dreams
sleep in denial,
old memories scream

Free up the moment,
strike out the past
damning the future,
its promise unmasked

Strike up the silence,
freeing new words
seizing the instant
—forever unheard

There was no going back he made an add of himself. She messed around trying to blame him for her actions. He kept a distance because he was hurt mostly angry for trusting all the wrong people.
He didn't always trust people but would find out the hard way. Life goes on she would deny him certain things but go do them with another person. It was the worse feeling he eventually went numb turned off his feelings and emotions. He felt cold by protecting his heart. It made him numb with emotionless ****** expressions and ******* the inside no consideration just doing
The only reason we’re here together, is to be there for one another.
If you’re not my Earth brother
Who are you ?
