In The Rain

Posted on January 23, 2023January 23, 2023 by Erin B.
I rather had
a sudden desire to rush
with a wild laugh,
and run
naked
in the rain.

Sugar Rush

Posted on November 3, 2022November 3, 2022 by Erin B.
A little voice
in my mind
would admit I deeply denied
how his promises
of comfort and love
are empty desire.
A sugar rush.
I feel momentarily moved,
but alone.

Reckless

Posted on September 22, 2022September 22, 2022 by Erin B.
I am reckless
in my life.
The rush of each thrill
burns brightly,
searing me in a desire
for distraction
as a desperate attempt
to feel something.

Utter Peace

We keep marveling
at the utter peace at hand
as we left the rush
and the emotional turmoil of work.

Run Madly

Posted on July 21, 2020August 4, 2022 by Erin B.
Do not sit
instead,
run madly
in a crowd of busy people.
It is so easy to drift
and rush, or rather,
flail
in aimless routine.
