Scratches - The Day After

Disappointed and numb.
Burdened by pain or love,

which is it?

 

Confused,

Needles in my eye's,

blisters on my hands,

screams down the hall,

the baby is coming.

No comparison.

 

Its deeper.

It must be love,

but sadness floods me.

 

Did you fail to see me lose my breath?

Confused I erase you.

If only that was so easy.

Wind knocked out I lay here alone.

Is my heart still beating?

Then I remember I can make lemon drops.

What's the recipe?

Your unknown, don't judge me.

I am coping.

Scratches heal.

I'm out.

Unlikely Friendship

The night was luke warm.
New companions among me.
Felt uncomfortable and forced.
Night came rainy before long.
All was time to go.
Behind the wheel headed to the comfort of home.
Out charged a bear.
Companions screaming.
In Shock.
I began to un-bearably laugh.
One companion joined me.
While the other cried.
Jokes and laughter filled the car.
Three unlikely companions began a bond.
Friendship met them one unlikely night.
