Loneliness


It creeps up on you  

Overtime 

in slow motion 

Stretching 

Unending 

You feel parched

Hungry 

You become mute 

It crushes you 

You crumble into yourself 

You’re pulverized 

And 

You vanish

SHINE BRIGHTLY MY SUPER NOVA

Image
My little darling My treasured gem My Nova. I know you are not mine, You belong to no one, You are your own  Lord and master.         Like a beautiful Mustang Free spirited and wild Yet so refined.  Even at your tender age You are precocious  But wide eyed Hungry for learning. You can spin tales better than Disney    Whose princess stories fascinate you so. Skyrocket my little star, But don't change, Stay free. Don't ever let anyone or anything Corral the Mustang in you.   Hunger and thirst  For wisdom and knowledge. What god bestowed the gift That is you, on me? Every time I see you I become richer Fulfilled  At peace.  My love for you is immeasurable. Purple is Nova's favorite color.
