contemplative reflection
pain unspokeneverything locked inside a vacuum
where the wall of it…
can hold someone hostage
a victim of their own thoughtsyou can’t…Read More

Peace not Granted
Oh come to me sacred peace
Unknowingly they participated
Volumes reaching levels unprecedentedOh, come to me in sweet silence
For one more vowel of consonant spoken
I will meet the judge and juryI see my end near…

Powerful short write and full of questions.🙏
