A chronicle of my life and poetic meanderings of my personal journey, joys, lows, and intermittent strife.

Just when the evening learns what the day knows
Just as the song lyrics used to speak to me and say
Just when a lover becomes lost in a lover’s throes
As the burning star reclaims the newborn day
Just when the cat is let out of the bag to begin
Its Cheshire cat sly and mischievous grin
It begins to end
This time I will not shy away
I am above it this time around; not below it
I am stronger, more resilient; stoic
I am prepared to know it
I am not afraid
I can and will show it

Grays
and bluer days
Clouds come rushing into my wearied mind
Phased,
cut by the blades
What am I to do when what I’ve lost I seek again to find?
Let the good shine
Let it shine forever on
Let the Wisdom become
May it become mine
Let the weather forever change
And let the Sun’s shine come upon
My skin and then
Let it shine well
Let the blossoming jasmine smell
Where the sadness used to dwell
Let it shine on and when
It grows dark; shine again
For me
