alone

but not

family about

but I, trapped in

grief so deep

like endless shards of glass

slicing, scattering

my soul like autumn leaves

on a windy day

alone

Promptly Written

I write about love, life, loss, kindness, and gratitude. Toss in some fiction and humor and you have the meanderings of a multifarious writer.
