Porcelain doll

Love is a porcelain doll.
So easy to break yet so hard to repair,
The chip may be mended, but the scar always there
The doll sometimes discarded, lays far in the rubble
Of a deserted town barred and closed. 
Some are kept as a keepsake still only subtley loved,
What happens when you break the doll?

    when it comes true

    when my dream is found, 

    my goals reached, 

    will I be fulfilled? 

    will the future be everything I’d hoped, 

    or a letdown

    a saddening realization of truth 

  • The wanderer

    The stone wall upon which he sits is crumbling, rough and moss covered, but it is home. 
    He stares up at the migrating geese, their honks loud and clear in the crisp air. 

  • Not ready

    When the world is dark, and the stars are out 

    My mind comes alive. 

    I drown alone in my thoughts with a smile on my face, 

    And let myself get lost, 

    Because I know I’ll be found.
