i looked upon a sky painted
in shades of light blue
blended amongst touches
of reflection and introspection
as thoughts refused to let go
and minds began to seek clarity.

hope
occasionally hurt hearts
give way to droll souls
in the hope that may
placate the pain we
maintain in veins
that slowly drains
us.

that we may
heal )

canvas
I am an evolving canvas.
Composed of an oxymoron of misplaced
and masterful strokes.
But still unfinished.

there’s still times i feel the words
hammer against
an ellipse
of lips
and
i have
to remind
them that they can
finally leave the wards in which they always lived

building walls

want to
climb
– walls built high
