One More Step


One More Step
5,210 steps each day without you,
and 600 miles I'd have to walk to be close to you.
7 days and 5 hours. 
Too Long, too far. 

I watched you walk away and I wanted to run after you
But I was stuck in a train,
You already started your 5,210 steps without me.

Looking back,
We were meant to take steps together.
Left, Right, Left, Right
Counting to eight  in our heads.  

My patience is dying, I need to see you.
How can something I love and need,
be so many steps away?

I am tired of taking all of these steps alone.
It is painful and difficult.
I want these steps to lead me to you.

One more day and I'll be a few steps away from you
But while I'm waiting....
I should take off these heels,
and wear more comfortable shoes.

Excellent Auburn Jewel

Dear Washington, You consumed my joy yet you also added smile You stole my proof-- Proof that there is such thing as fate, that there is such thing as defeating one's fears, and meeting your wish, on the road to Damascus. Take care of my joy, my wish Take care of my Friend

Alone

Alone This has happened before, fighting on my own. Self-hatred and sadness, thin marks, and bruised bone. The urges still haunt me, I see red and relief  The pain still controls me, that old friend, a thief. Stealing my sanity, my strength, my progress My brush needs a canvas ,I'll gently  caress  I have missed you, master,  the love you have shown. Convincing and charming, making me feel alone.

Memories

Boxed up with a bow, gift beautiful, secure wrapped in soft cloth, feeling happy and sure. Now the tape is torn,not well kept together cut open with holes, tossed like a weak feather.  The gift is shattered, but remains in that box damaged, unworthy, weighed down by giant rocks.  Rocks that dent the shape, that was rebuilt so well admired gently, ringing praises like a bell.  Fixed way too quickly, ripped apart in pieces scattered everywhere, the burden increases. Swept up in one scoop, little noise to the ears. Swept up in one day, a gift wrapped for eight years. -Belle Rose
