Dreams

Lately, my dreams have been vivid and so real

I swear I can reach out and touch the people

I dream of those who have left this world

I am so happy to see them and I hear their voices

But, there is always a reason I can’t stay with them

I am filled with pure joy from our reunion

but the joy slowly leaks out of the holes in my broken heart

I wake to an empty room and the reality of my world

Anger, sorrow, and regret fight for dominance 

In the end, I rise and fix my coffee

I am ready for another day 

I’m Blank

I am looking for the ON switch for my brain.  Or, maybe a key that opens the door to my mind.  Nothing so far!

“I’m Blank”

I’m blank, I’m blank!

Nothing in my think tank!

My brain tells me I’m tired

And yet I feel so wired!

Well, I am just sitting here staring into space.  I don’t think anything else is going to come to me today.  That’s okay.  There’s always tomorrow (I hope).  Have a lovely Sunday!
