DARKEST DAYS



...everything is in black and white...

...my body shuts down...
...except for the pain...
...my mind is chaotic...
...lingering in the past...



---i search for textures and patterns...

the silence at night is so loud
sleep is short
filled with voices all talking at once
in a language i don't know
yet so familiar
i think i can capture the words
until i pick up pen and paper. 

the noise in the day is so quiet
the voices speaking in whisperers so soft
the only clue to their meaning
is the restless tingle
that crawls just under my skin



...and a touch of winter color...
...foreshadowing spring...



January is half over...

AT THE END OF THE DAY...it's time to wake up...and stop looking backwards...
