the day of quiet
quiet in conversation, quiet in company - none
quiet on the tv - old movies to calm my soul
quiet in the corners of my conscience
thoughts of how to continue creep in the quiet
thoughts of how can my dreams accomplish anything
I am old
my loves have left me because I was not good enough for them
my loves have left me for someone more convienent
my love for myself has such strength
yet I am old and could be no more love looking for me
late in the afternoon
clouds come over the sun
wind blows so hard the windows whistle
feelings of accomplishing little creep in my head
feelings that make me cry
feelings that come to me and remind me to go forward
I am old
my life is not over
my soul is tired of struggle
struggle keeps the world going unfortunately
can not keep going some days
yet I always do
hope keeps me going
a tiny spark of hope
hope I can live a good life
yet
I am old
