Locked inside this fantasy
Of colors changing hue
That fade away too easily
Leaving shades of blue
Block the colors from my mind
Memories of much better times
Reflections in the mirror, you
Reflections that I never knew
Locked outside of brighter days
Emotions I now lack
Feelings turned into malaise
As colors fade to black

Emptiness lies beyond the mist
Pallid colored crystals shift
She walks on tip toes, through the grass
Blades that feel like shards of glass
Wondering where it is she’ll go
Lost among the fog aflow
That swirls about her naked skin
Uncloaked to feel the cold within
Of winter’s chill that holds no kindness
Frozen in this icy blindness
She wanders on into the haze
Her mind adrift in a languid daze

There is no answer to
Her more than somber mood
Shadowed by sadness
Overwhelming , unexplained
Missing pieces
Scattered about
Just out of reach
Baring a soul
Taunting its very being
And she struggles
With effort to break this gloom
Never giving up, fighting
This mournful feeling
She cannot let capture her resolve

Looking out the window
Staring at the sun
And thinking softly to myself
Am I the only one
Who dreams of faraway places
Untouched by human greed
A land that is unblemished
One we dare not cede
Perhaps I’m just a dreamer
Perhaps I hope for more
Than chemicals and GMO’s
Found in the grocery store
Perhaps we can accomplish
This very daunting task
Of cleaning up the Earth we love
Without an oxygen mask
Yes, looking out the window
There’s no sun left in the sky
And as a tear rolls down my cheek
I turn my face and cry….

It trickles down my cheek
Washes away the yesterdays
Chases away the madness
Cleanses my aching heart
The Gentle Touch of Rain…..
