It was hard for Jim to separate his yearnings from his emotions.
He was young and just getting accustomed to the world around him.
There was so much to discover away from the nest.
Thrilling, and yet guilt-ridden.
Freedom waiting to be discovered.

Disappointment
Disappointment is the norm
no need to wait for things to get better
just accept what is

Moving with hope
Love would chance the streets
moving with hope
better tomorrows
paved from forgotten yesterdays

Unnoticed
Herbert was lost in his reading.
An antique himself
like the register he stood behind
when all came to a crashing end
he wouldn't even notice

Occupied
Fran kept her mind occupied
cluttered with things past
looking back was all she could do
trying to fill her own shoes

Drying Tears
The air filled with the foul smell of death.
A grey stench that clung to us.
A reminder of freedom lost...
Drying tears.

Apart
We were at war with ourselves
divided, hearts and minds apart
taking comfort in moments
passing into the unknown
freedom for sale
