Born Free

I am trapped.

A prisoner of my own destiny.

I try to get away

but get pulled in deeper

into the microcosm of your emotions.

I give up.

And seek refuge in your world,

But you provide me none.

You say you want me there

yet you do not welcome me.

I am trapped.

I have to choose.

Between you and sanity.

I have to break free.

Evanescence

A glistening dewdrop,
a shimmering bubble,
a sheet of mist,
ripples in the lake,
a silver lining,
flutter of wings,
hues of a rainbow,
nebulous, ephemeral and fleeting.
And life too -
beautiful and evanescent.
Savor while it lasts.
