I fell asleep
Thinking of you,
Again.
You fill my heart,
And mind
And then.
It all becomes,
So clear
My friend.
I wait,
For you.
I can't pretend.

The Sun’s Lament to the Moon By the dimming of the firelight I see a lovely glow Arising from the still dark night His light to me does show But only in the darkest hours Stolen moments before he rests Oh harsh moon how can you be so cruel so rare, so full my breast my heart is merely fuel. Don’t bring me gentle promises Don’t mock me with your light Appearing as the answer to a cold and endless night. Bright shine and beautiful Ever to offer more? Have I broken your cold heart? Have you cast me on your shore? Oh moon. I want you by my side, But I am the fiery sun. The two never to collide. Illusions cast Grasping rays of moonlight empty hands. Maybes and dreams carried away on the heat of rising dew Sun breaking fast. Anew. Renew. D.R.H. copyright Donna R. Hedges 2021
Pain Bones Centred in between shock waves Creeping up unseen Stops the world Stops my breath Freeze. Release Try again The whole world centred in Between these bones Body betrayed Failing parts Muscle bone Blood and skin Tone it down? Sigh Since when? Look at me! I’m just 23 Inside my head Prefrontal side. DRH Copyright Donna Hedges 2021
Distance With distance great Time is sweet Peaches ripe Ever fleeting. Taste the nectar Burst inside Juices quench Lover’s sigh Warmth enfold Deep embrace Rest awhile Sharing grace. All too soon The time has come Fingers release Bittersweet and succumb Wishing for Swift passage until Once again Hold you, I will. D.R.H. Copyright Donna Roseanne Hedges 2021
