Poetry For Everyday People

Resilience

The ache silent,
the void a home,
night tranquil,
loneliness pours
on sorrows ice,
candles burn,
cry,
tears melt
past laughter,
the walls
make shadows
I wanna forget,
window cracked,
cold sneaks in
like a friend,
wine makes my tongue
lust
and I
take a big sip,
Friday night
Saturday night
Sunday night
a constant date
with my mind,
my memories,
my lack of
giving up
on humanity,

in a little house
in a little town
some place in time
reaching through
all livings hell
to find the ones
that still believe,
scars and all,

finding each other

keeping hope alive,
knowing
we're not alone,

even though
we seem surrounded
by the enemy.
