Deja Vu

Filed under: Pieces Of Prose

My soul remembers a different time, a life born into wealth and privilege. A life devoted to learning about the world and helping others around me.

I remember finding love, as finding it in this life feels familiar, as if I have gazed in those eyes long before this time and recognize the spirit inside. With that love comes happiness, and with that happiness comes fear of loss.

My own mortality haunts me. I fear it.

I fear losing everything. I fear the end of all things, because deep down I secretly feel that I once bore witness to it. In a different time, a different place, I once lived, loved and lost.

Will I see the end again in this life? Will I remember it in the next?

I Look At You

Filed under: Pieces Of Prose

I look at you and I see
The promise of a great love
Flowing continuously
Changing our lives forever

I look at you and I see
A secret buried within
Words better left unspoken
A love that can never be

For John

Amneris’ Letter

I’m sorry for everything I’ve said
And for anything I forgot to say too
When things get so complicated
I stumble, at best, muddle through
I wish that our lives could be simple
I don’t want the world
Only you.

-Tim Rice

It says everything.

Save Me

Filed under: Pieces Of Prose

Save Me
I’m sinking into the blackness
Drowning in the abyss
Failing to see the light

Save Me
Make the ghosts leave
Chase the demons away
Scare the bogeyman off

Save Me
Hold me close in your arms
Let me rest in your embrace
Remind me of why I ‘m here
