Ebb and Flow

Standard

Morning.
Up before sunrise.
Dancing in the dark.

Playing my records

In the kitchen,
A few songs on repeat.

(Tears dried in my dreams)

One day flowing into the next.
Loving.
Learning.
Growing.
Holding on to this,
Letting go of that.
Things that must be said,
Memories wished to be forgotten.
Ebb and flow.
This I know;
I woke breathing this morning.

Out There Somewhere

Standard

She knows he is out there

Somewhere,

So

She keeps breathing.

Sitting on a park bench,

Umbrella in her lap.

Rain pouring down,

But she doesn’t care.

Hair soaking wet.

Raindrops on her lips.

Still she doesn’t care.

She keeps breathing.

The rain is falling down

And none of it matters.

She knows

He is out there somewhere.

She is not drowning yet.

She’s still breathing.
