Soul Mates

Ebb and flow
Decisions of love
One wave
Brings a tide of emotion
A hindrance to
Progress of personal ambition
Another wave
Brings foam to smother the emotion
For being imbalanced
Love of self begins to grow
The tide recedes
Leaving loneliness
In the sand
Small holes of opportunity
Appear to either
Fill the void again or
Keep the feelings at bay
What will the tide bring next?

To Come And Go

It was bright. Her eyes needed a moment to adjust to the light and that was why it hurt to look around. After a moment, she moved forward. She could see a patch of green ahead and it seemed much more inviting than the dark where she had come from. It had been cold there and she felt that she would feel better where it was warm.
