"Sanity and Paperwork"

This is the path I walk but did not choose.

I feel my pain in different shades and hues.

Still seeking a new substance to abuse.



My sanity, like paperwork, I lose.

Feel judged by smug church people in their pews,

who can’t see past their narrow-minded views.



I’m over-sensitive. You touch – I bruise.

This is the path I walk but did not choose.

Both sanity and paperwork, I regularly lose.

"Silver"

Weave your silver shimmer

into the shards

of my heart.

Touch my spirit

in this darkness.

That is a start.

"The Healing Process"

gentle chords
a broken spirit
mending

healing hearts
unite
in love so pure
