Pillow Talk

Pillow Talk

Middle of the night

Tap on the shoulder

<Unresponsive>

     I need you

     Slight body thrust

I'm right here

Attention gained

What's on your mind?

     Just talk to me…

You ok?

     Just talk to me..

'Home' is key for me

Sometimes my head gets lost

Best to stay in one place

I know

I go off roaming around

Here and there instead

Present moment by moment

Presence warmly felt

Selfish need kicks in

Overthinking

Cold, lonely, longing

Comfortable silence switch flipped

off

Free falling abandonment

Just because I'm not there

Doesn't mean I'm not there

Playing over and over again

Comforts me

While breaking my heart

     Why are you crying?

Just talking to you…

      You ok?

Attention gained

You're right here…

Just For a Moment

Everyone's so busy
dropped in the running position
rushing here, there and everywhere
doing this or that.

It's quite amazing, awing
impressing, inspiring
green with envy, a bit,
I can no longer keep up like that.
Flip-side
catching what might be missed.

Time is our most precious resource;
at the same time a factor that rushes us
even when in the company of dear ones.

Maybe I'm eight in my thinking
it's just so securing and comforting
slowing your roll
just enjoying
moment to moment
where
whom you're with.
No other matters or cares
second handing in your head.

Juggling things around
squeezing in silence and space from it all
still rushing it.

When you got the time
ticking....

ticking in your head.

                   

That's Right...

Bypass flooded roads
detour put there for a reason.
Ain't always just one way to get there,
no longer on the shoulder in my own head.

Some of us lavish ourselves in taking the scenic route,
a Sunday drive everyday,
the long way home...

Packed up the boxes
worked the shredder hard
the garbage - taken out.
No longer paying for a storage area I don't need.

Brand spanking new,
took time being "selfish"
invested in self.

Located the private drive accessing shutting down the mind
acquired some property
papers signed and dated
picked up the keys to relaxation,
just being;
more comfortable and real than I've ever been--

I'm home.
