Dead

Travel years and miles
always walking with a smile

Just the motion
even during commotion

No connection, something surreal
going through the motions without the feel

Friends come and friends go
just another step to go...

Years come, with seeds to sow
A hope to blossom and feel life blown...

...into my nostril may His breath blow
something to resurrect this Pinnochio

Perhaps the bit of hope,
is all one life might cope

A real smile comes one day
the consolation that time flies, ...or so they say

Void

I know you wonder, but you've found your love At your windows, stones are thrown By moonlight, a handsome face is shown Lay with me, see my bed is cold Long ago...where you awoke: every morn', you danced in sun Your smile gazed, at my gleaming eyes You went away,  and I stayed behind Not you, as you may a growing void, if you stayed...

Listen

People cheer and jeer! So loud! Hoping for its end; a longing for that solitude. A yearn and crave for that sole dark place... just can't hear myself! ELPH© January 2, 2017
