TIME

Time together
time apart
feeling feelings
without asking your heart
time alive
time half dead
feeling happy
without asking your head
time alone
time with friends
feeling loved
without knowing the end

BRANCHES

Snow frosted branches
sparkle at night
reflecting reflections
from the moon's sunny light
eyes brightly twinkle
as lights nourish dreams
allowing old branches
to float down new streams
snow frosted branches
wave in the breeze
growing stronger
for the sake of the trees
eyes brightly twinkle
as new branches form
allowing the trees
to weather the storms

MISSING

Missing people
places and things
once found in the spaces
where comfort sings
spaces now echo
fond memories in song
making you sad
yet making you strong
embracing the darkness
missing the light
encouraging sparks
to light up the night
we can just forget
and pretend we don't feel
but remembering and missing
can help a heart heal

LIGHTS

Electric lights
displacing the dark
guiding blind vessels
fixed on their mark
electric lights
glowing through glass
inviting the darkness
to play with the past
vessels of sadness
warmed by the glow
guiding blind hearts
over mountains of snow

SPINNING

Spinning in circles
thoughts slowly churn
unraveling obsessions
with every turn
spinning in circles
wheels slowly turn
shedding the past
with every burn
circling backwards
the future still waits
spinning in circles
we alter our fate

PUZZLES

Pieces of puzzles
misplaced over time
as lives are lived
and souls are mined
pieces of puzzles
lost in the rush
as lives are lived
and dreams are crushed
puzzles of people
kept apart in real time
pieces of life
yours and mine
