SEAT OF MY SOUL

The lights flicker in silence

I grow patience inside me

I learn to wait.

When I am alone

I write the name beautifully

Only in my mind where the tears

Are mine, and memories arrest me.

The room is red in darkness

No spoken words,  I bleed.

Celebrating an interlude

Of thoughts, then swift

A sweeping feeling around me.

In solitude, the stars scattered

All around, I begin to shatter.

It’s ok..life will get better.
