Sliding Thoughts

tears

and so now the rain that refused to fall from the sky
is falling down in memories of the never will be
and I am slowly waking toward healing.

in silence I stumble
in these reflections, humbled
in moments I finally see

I am the eternal traveler
staying close to home
I will make tea for you
bare feet will touch wooden floors
whenever the rain comes down
from the vicious gray skies

we are sheltered.

    Yet another amazing poem. These passages in particular, as if taken from my heart, resonated so powerfully:

    “in memories of the never will be”

    “I am the eternal traveler
    staying close to home”

    “I will make tea for you”

    Safe Travels, O Eternal Traveler!

    May they always bring you home stronger, wiser, and happier.

  4. Beautiful writing, as always. I get the feeling that there are multiple layers to this…
