Holding Out, Holding Close

Holding Out, Holding Close ~ Photo by Patrice

Holding out, holding close 
Thoughts of yesteryear

Knowing they arrived
Played out
And
Now have disappeared.

Reasons why, reasons known
I can’t decipher
I can’t cry out

All I know
they happened
They’re with me now 

Till I leave this earth, till I too 
Am no longer here.

The Never Never

December 2, 2015

The never never comes
Or consoles  lost ones, lost souls
Searching in the mist, the dark
For what has happened
What has cost
What’s been lost.

The never never helps
The world resolve
Earth shattering episodes
None that I recall
Only moving forward, heart in hand
Holding out for sanctuary
A soft place to land.
~ Patrice
