Walks

That i was amongst people who dearly mattered to me

a fear of tomorrow grew as i went on

enlightenment

To feel anything

I felt relief

When i thought it no longer cared

Time

wanting to be bare foot for longer

Age 9

I felt rejuvinated

When i could no longer lie to myself

Darkness

Life

That i could see the sea

In the clearing, the truth emerged

fish and chips

slow walkers

I had to escape the rain

Rain found the roof before it found the clearing. A broad soft patter moved through the canopy, reached the corrugated sheet in separate blows, then joined itself into a continuous hiss. Water ran from one corner because the gutter ended there.

I hadn't told anyone where i had gone. They were woriied.

The problem

I got lost in my own thoughts

My shoulders had dropped and for a moment i didn't feel the weight of the world.

Everything and nothing.

An empty path ahead, but no end

Perseverance

A burning car blocking the way

a starting point without buildings

My reflection in the window. The edges have disappeared.

Shame

When i lost faith

When i lost sight of what was important

last view of sunset was crisp and clear

I received a call
