Poem # 14

Expanded consciousness

is simply

dealing

pain

&

living

my

life.

I am able

to be

reduced

to raw, open

pain

&

come back

I Wish

I wish I could undo her death

I wish I could go back to the old me

I wish I could stop upsetting people

I wish the pain would stop

I am glad you have your child

I am glad you can continue as you

I am glad you can be PC and never upset anyone

I am glad you don’t have that pain

I wish there were no gap between us

I am glad you don’t understand

I wish there were a safe place for me

I am glad you don’t have that search

I wish

                        I wish

                                                I wish…
