I let them go
He held me close
No words were said
It was as if
He was a ghost.
Tomorrow may be
A different day
I hope
He’s with me
Keeping all
That’s bad at bay.

I Let Them Go

Why Haven’t You
April 8, 2021Why haven’t you held me close
Protected me from the worst, the gross
Why haven’t you?
Why haven’t you heard my pleas
My calls for help
Why haven’t you?
Why haven’t you seen the worst
And fell upon the evil that has me cursed
Why haven’t you?
Why haven’t you seen, heard, felt or been
The one I need
Why haven’t you?
Why haven’t you?

This Lady

In another place, another time
This lady
Was my nursery rhyme.
She held me close, she kept me far
She taught me to believe
In my star.
