Wishing for long nights
To stay with me forever
I hide in the dark

(On the compulsion to hide from the world.)
Seeking clear paths to
free everyone I’ve tangled:
I see only one
Night calls me to bed
The promise of snow lingers
Most unwelcome guest
11:59 pm
Poems elusive,
poems that will never be:
tonight I mourn them
(On expression never served.)
Simmering envy
Seeing others bravery
Fearfully, I live
Morning brought no change;
with burning scents on the wind
routine drives forward
The haunting persists:
I carry on ignoring
its calls for reset

hoping morning brings waking
changed or not at all

Friend departs again
Happily, I see more joy
In second crossing
Chasing hopeful light
Persevering night and day
I am still running
(Written on reflection of Wanting to be Wrong from last November.)
…
I find myself calmed
Somehow in this acceptance
