She Said She Could
She said she could
feel
everyone’s
pain
all types of pain
ever since
she was
a small child
behind the bars
of her crib
alone in her room
especially when
they walked by
thinking she was
asleep
but she was awake
with her eyes
closed
sensing emotions
of every type
and degree
hot or cold
whispering
or silent
she was
there
within
them
moments magnified
breath to breath
heartbeat to heartbeat
she couldn’t
die
to all the slow dying
so she
kept them from dying.
The Wait
I’m approaching
my peak
feeling
it
every second
I think
and feel
tip and tease
heading straight
into years
down that path
street turning
into corners
I’ll make the max
of what I’ve got
so wait until
you’re ready
to understand
the years of fate
are
great!
To Be or Not to Be
I don’t want
to be
crazy
but sometimes
I am
enjoying it
so much
I’m not sure
if I should
stop
or just pop
open
to everything!
