Seasaw

A seesaw of emotions
a blogging poet fool
a gypsy lost in twilight
consumed by dreams of you

A sonic boom explosion
a tale that must be told
a song without a melody
and riches without gold

a heart that’s full of memories
and pain that’s best untold
a life that’s in the balance
and survival mode still holds

a beauty lies within
a shelter from life’s storm
a hope in darkest moments
that keeps me safe and warm

another day is dawning
the sun rises through the mist
today I will begin anew…
a woman who must persist
