Poems

I find no way out of darkened rooms

Carried by this leaden body that can barely move

My heart is enmeshed with knotted yarn

My soul is torn and the wound found numb

I ache to feel but emotion does not have a home here.

It is in this deep and craggy hole that I abide

Without strength to climb nor hope that there is somewhere else to be

I have given up on the chance of touching a world that can also touch me

Of finding another who can be with me.

I hear a sob, tears fall
