Change


   

“Change”

 

God after all of this,

I must seem like an ass.

As if you can look through me,

Like a pane of glass.

 

Change I assume,

Is the operative word.

Untethered,

With sails unfurled.

 

Change very much,

Has occurred.

Much like many of us,

Have endured.

 

Change is what it falls to,

Change is what it boils down to.

It all really boils down to.

What you are going to do.

 

Change.

The Embers

   
   

“The Embers”

 

The embers are fading,

I live in the dark.

As far as I have tried.

I cannot find the spark.

 

Ashes and ashes,

Are always the same.

Drawing circles in ashes,

Is that all that remains?

 

Shoved and pushed,

Forced down to the ground.

Cry out, cry out.

No one to hear the sound.

 

The embers have faded,

I live in the dark.

I have tried and tried,

But there is no spark.

Life

  
  

“Life” 

 

Should I crawl out?

Am I worthy?

Was I too weak?

I find it hard to see.

 

Am I deserving?

To be reinvited,

Back to life?

Am I disinvited?

 

From life.

I am far to broken.

The words just fall out,

Some must think I am joking.

 

Should I even try to,

Crawl out of this ditch.

Bottom line,

Crawl, walk or run,

Life is a bitch.
