Excitement through and through.
Fear underlying the surprise.
Getting ready for the day.
Everything that can be packed is in the backpack.
Standing for the bus.
Wave good-bye and see you later!

When you are spending time
with your ex-boyfriend
and wonder if you are “just” friends.
What happens when he no longer wants
to hang with you?
Would you want to return to being
a couple again?
Why does he think he has your
undivided attention?
Are you still in love with him?
Do you yearn for the day
he says he wants more
or are you fine with the status quo?
I hope the future is brighter.
That the children can inherit a better world.
One where the people who hurt you are gone.
A world of peace and sustainability.
Wars are meaningless and useless.
To imagine a world where only ambitions push you.
Not the bully on the playground…
Wait, did I just describe Star Trek?
Brain farts.
Bubble headed moments.
When you were going to say something…
and then lost it!
Memory is such a fickle thing.
I wonder what I was talking about?
Is the price of inflation
so bad that two dollars
is not enough for a bottled water?
Taxes and deposits
increase the price
until your money is gone.
Spent and drained
no one is immune to prices
going up and up.
When it is
your last two dollars
you learn the value of money the hard way.
Wrapped up by love.
The warmth of another.
Contentment with the world.
and the threat of falling asleep.
All is better
when you are snuggled up against
someone who loves you!
My Energy is gone?
Where did it go?
I don’t understand.
I have things to do.
Places to go
and People to see.
I need my limbs to work.
Uh oh I think the brain
is about to malfunction…
Where this came from
I don’t know
It took my by surprise.
A pleasant surprise?
I’ll let you know
when I’m done!
Small apartment.
Twelve or
Fifteen kids.
Cats.
Six of them.
The overwhelming desire
of needing to get out of there!
I am in the wrong job.
I need the money.
But I am getting by.
My life is comfortable.
I have the time to focus.
on little things if I wish.
So why am I so scared
of looking for another job?
Excuses pile up each time
I broach the subject.
My confidence is weak
and so I cannot find
the energy needed to look.
Am I stuck here?
Or will I continue to whine
until my circumstances
force me to change?
