TimeWalls


The stream of days
flows ever so fast
goes its own way
seems this life will never last
I have failed, in my own eyes
tethered to the force
of the past I can still hear my cries.


TimeWalls
closing the door to each decade
it separates me from the failed pasts
a chameleon acting out a charade
she has me cast.


TimeWalls
protects me as I move
forward into each new life
wearing a different groove
Reality threatens at the point of a knife.


The partitions of Chronos
holds back yesterdays
from seeping into my todays
never should the many identities meet
never should my failures awaken from its sleep.


But Love has given me a child
And age has made me a bit more mild
And the TimeWalls crumble
In these days reflecting on the moments
When I’ve fallen in the past
The partitions are falling
I am seeing that nothing lasts.


With fewer choices forward
The elders look backward
Causes me to stumbling.


TimeWalls
Have all disappeared
The mindscapes are barren now
A clearview to the memories for
Good or bad, stands like the crow
And vultures wait when they can pick
me up from off the floor
With TimeWalls no more
All of my Existence falls
Away, there are no
TimeWalls
to call my own.

Dinner is on the wall Children crying, infant screaming Fear freezes her when he calls Between them there is silence peeling Its the way they only know Its how love they struggle to show He knows nothing more She can’t bear the blood and sores She understands she must flea But how else can she Be? _______________ Copyright © 2020 HeardWords America

His Love for Her

Don't leave me here!  Don't you leave me here this way!  What will all my friends say? Who was it that carried me on the bier? Well, will you pray for me? Or can't you wait to see another man, if only you can?  Life with you was never,  the kind I wanted.  You called me "friend" That was after you put an end to our coupling. That was after you had my ring  cut off your finger. I can hear you singing after that. You had your own definition for being a swinger. A woman, free and unattached. Since then we've never been intimate. No matter the many times I had to wait. You would love me  Only by cleaning and laundrying for me. Still you'd never give me a bath. We had a life together you never let last. Don't leave me here!  Don't you leave me here this way!  What will all my friends say?     "She buried him, with his love for her.      She's not so demur."  _________ copyright ©️ 2023 SDKilmer, LLC All Rights Reserved www SDKi
