  Living, Dying
  
  As autumn approaches
  And summer’s free spirit dies
  My heart should be soaring
  As high as an eagle flies
  Freedom is just around the corner
  Peeping with vivid ocean eyes
  They glisten and sparkle joy to me
  Laughing out a bright reprise
  “Like a sunset on the tree leaves
  Or the smile of a sunrise
  Are the opportunities waiting for you
  It’s here your future lies”
  
  But my heart is full of tumult
  My mind a thrashing gale
  The tempest swirls and sails shred
  They quiver at fury’s wail
  Love and war are fair they say
  Romance bright and hale
  No one mentions how they break you
  How a cheery day turns stale
  Pulled in opposite directions now
  Which of two loves will prevail?
  So many questions and worries flood
  Will I live to tell the tale?
  
  When soon I drift and float away
  From this temporary prison cell
  And join the expanse of liberty
  The choices, how they swell
  My weary longing eyes rejoice
  Yet what I do results in hell
  For someone near and dear to me
  “It’s better me than them,” I’ll yell
  So freedom from my clutches falls
  I stay and linger until time will tell
  Some distant day I’ll reach its smile
  And at last I will declare “all is finally well.”

  Morning
  
  The sky was a bluebird, just waking up
  A star stood still shining
  Like a toddler not yet tucked in
  The fairy flowers fluttering together
  With the fragrant feathers of frosty air
  A dreamy moonflower
  Tucks its heavy head into its blanket
  Ready to go to sleep
