With eyes wide open,
comes a pounding on the door.
No site,
no vision,
as I lay helpless on ones floor.
With a pinch to the arm,
to see that this was no dream.
Now shaking from the cold,
the pounding remains.
With sweat building on my chest.
Silent footprints begin to walk around.
For a moment
im felt blessed
and my fright was brought down.
Now a vision
of light flickering on the wall,
continuing to shadow
it begains to call,
out a holler of ones name
not said so clear
but said with animosity
and said as if they were near.
As fright goes away
I began to wounder why this is here.
Looking for something that has been lost.
Looking for something to share.
Cant figure out the meaning
of whats being said,
but sounding as if hes
coming back from the dead.
To visit a wrong doing
possibly
the fault of his death,
maybe even the person upstairs lying in his bed,
now looking for help
with nothing I can do.
For maybe this is a warning
as he is here to send me some clue.
As the morning arises
I react fast,
taking no chances.
Gathering up all my belongings
and making history of the past
Richard,
This is great. Iwas in laughter and also close to tears, reminiscing what it was like, "Here Today, Gone Tomorrow".
Thanks for sharing. Linda
