Feeling
Reeling
She waits
in the space
between asleep
and awake
just a glimpse
and then
she's gone
she brushes
up against
with a soft
caress
her touch
startling
starving
intriguing
receiving
ethereal
she cries
as she flies
in a realm
where souls
are won
and lost
her tears
shower down
the stardust
that fills
the indigo
velvet sky below
comfortiing
healing
stealing sorrows
in the
daunting space
unvisited
she sees
a soul
crushing
rushing
sweet
complete
she cradles
the fragility
in a quiet
unseen embrace
in the space
between asleep
and awake
she waits.

Thoughts on Vocal and the way the world is
"Death cannot stop true love, only delay it." – Wesley in The Princess Bride. I decided to come back to Vocal on a very cold and dark night at the end of December. I had been, and still am, convalescing from a horrible staph infection that had gone misdiagnosed for months. This, paired with the increasing challenges of being healthy, making the best choices for my co-parented child, being a wife, and being a director at a new job, was a lot to manage.
