Just an ordinary woman… slipping away…
Lay quiet
Lay still
so the pain doesn’t come.
Don’t breathe
a sound
or an invitation.
Dear Pain,
I’m sorry
but, I think we should break up.
It’s not me,
it’s just you
and, I’ve had more than enough.
Dear Sam,
Nice try,
but, I am going nowhere.
No way.
No how.
Not on wings or a prayer.
Just then
warm winds
whispered words from the past
“Just wait
Hold on
and, this too shall pass.”

Thank you 47WB. Glad you liked them both. =)
Great poem
Thank you for thinking and saying so. =)
Wonderful combination of poetry and song.
The song does sort of fit perfect, eh? Thanks for being here, Charles.
Interesting poem..like the conversation style and the past reminding the future that ‘this too shall pass’
Yes… conversations with ourselves and our ghosts from the past, present and future. Thanks for the visit.
hey beautiful
Hey Charles. :-) Been a while. Good to “see” you & your words again.
Don’t be a stranger. I think I lost your email. Well, it’s around here somewhere; I’ve reformatted my machine since the last time I wrote you.
