The Time Has Come

.   Photo: Bollards Geelong, Australia


There were times
You dressed in disguise,
Winning no prize.

Then you hid away
In your own way;
Seeking to be your own kind.

And what did you find?
Glasshouses and grey clouds
Deflating your ego so proud.

Protecting yourself from those rain clouds
You've been hiding far too long.
From the noise in your head.
Hiding your heart away.

Now get outta bed
The time has come,
For putting your heart out there.

Deep in your soul
Repairing the holes.
Finds you up on a shelf.

Measuring out time.
Your deepest self to find,
Hypostasis or persona?

Or just another, with Corona?
There were times
You saw yourself
As less than you really are.

And how far
Can you go?
Before the real you will show?

Of yourself what can you know?
The time has come,
For putting your heart out there.

Is There Nothing More?

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
