Catharsis
by Elizabeth HoadleyEye's you could fall into
squished by the cheeks
you could hold onto
and a smile you cannot
hide from
it is
she,
pinches me
everyday
I should lay
in pain
she,
grabs my wondering
and innocently
distracted mind
and puts direction
in every step
it takes
she,
casts a shadow
over my drought,
pouring her
beauty on my
barren lands
she is
me,
when she
waters my wounds
and puts out the
flames I have casted
upon myself
she,
is me without the
doubt and hostility
that bruises
all I see
She pushing
Me pulling
the balance of the
world
together,
is better
than I could've
ever
hoped it to be 04/03/2010 Author's Note: I love to live.
I live to love.
