Epiphany

I might just spend my
whole life 
waiting for an 
epiphany
will it ever come?
how will it come 
exactly?
grandly and one step at a time
or all at once 
like waking up from a confusing dream
and everything suddenly makes sense again
and on further thought
how do epiphanys
work, really?
I guess it doesn't really 
matter all I want to 
know
is if I will be waiting forever
for something that will 
never 
come

  • Separation

    Why does the rain 
    tap on the window
    when you can't feel it?
    Why will it remind you of 
    the dew drops dancing on the grass blades in early spring,
    of August's ocean breeze spraying saltwater in your hair, 

  • Empty

    The person is empty 
    the person with no identity 
    the one with no personality 
    Who doesn't now what yesterday was like or the day before
    Know one seems to know this person anymore 
  • Understanding

    Somewhere in my past
    a sunny snow day haunts me
    the serenity 
    Feels too cliche 
    to enjoy
    I remember the glances out of the window
    on a day that finally feels like spring 
    because winter can be long and dark
