Free verse № 7941
Ever Present
tragedy is a state of mind-
option seeking, I find -
you, staring back at me,
the smell of woodsmoke and terror,
and pain, ever-present friend of mine.
and yet, cherished. Pain
is how I know joy is near,
hovering in the stage-wings
like tomorrow's dream-
always present, never found.
always reaching out to me.
always staying close to me.
always present, never found-
ever-present, friend of mine.
