Somewhere in time
fantasies did grow
Over-taking all reality
until no longer
can one differentiate.
Was it madness?
a disease?
An escape from life?
swallowed in a mimosa of hatred
swaddled in grey.
Beating against enclosing walls
fists bleeding
numb with pain.
There is no escape from this truth
no matter how hard
no matter how fast
one tries to flee.

When the door closes please don’t look back
for not wracked with grief will I be;
a sense of relief, of a burden now shed
a small dance breaks from me.
The truth of it is, as Cohen’s voice caresses my skin
I am not afraid of your loss,
Not afraid that you shall flee
for I know….I know….
the worth of me.
Sensual, sexual, lusting
I will no longer hide
Do not think to shush me,
do not think to bind,
for I have found truth,
I have found expression in mine own.
