There Was Something

Posted on May 23, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
There was something... wild,
beautiful, even brilliant.
They were going everywhere -
beaches and forests and mountain peaks,
with no money to
make them happy.

Look Back

Posted on May 15, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
A beautiful light passed
his face.
I have done all I can.
I hope to look back upon my life
and say I was a man.

You are an enigmatic reader,
the very reason why I
engage in my
method of thought.

and is a quiet glance
into my truth.

Infinite Calm

Posted on May 7, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
His form and hers, of perfect peace.
The infinite calm
seldom frenzied or despairing
a shadowless eternity boundless in love.
One might doubt
the presence of asserted tranquility.
Do you believe such people are happy?
I'd give a great deal to know.

All This Space

I gotta go!
This very instant.
Run away in
all this space.

Existence of Happiness

Posted on May 2, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
It is strange
how the existence of happiness
completes your heart
even when body is gone.
Men seldom cherish
the solace of declining years.

They Would Brave All

Posted on May 2, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
Together,
they would brave all.
They stepped
or, more correctly, felt irresistibly impelled
by the sweet ring of progress
beyond the line of storms.

Solitary Rambling

Posted on April 30, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
I took such a taste
for this solitary rambling
that I did not fear
breaking forth alone.
My confidence proved plenty
and sheltered by my cautious counsel
I went wandering
in search of myself.

Looking for the Light

Posted on April 29, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
I found
that we seem
to all be
looking for the light.
