Nother Beginning
I want just one day. Like a fading film of smiles and beaches, draped in white and wind. So light. So surreal. So far away ... Reality is a kick in the head. I was lying when I said I felt ok. I was lying when I said I was fine. I close my eyes. You see me blink. Then it's over. The day is gone. Maybe tomorrow, I say to myself. And I blink. I see sunshine and water. I feel warm and alive. I can move. You see me sleep. It would bring me relief if I could forget today or if I had hope for tomorrow. © S. Amanda Clevinger |
