Poem: All is shadow and light,
eerily spilled in the emptiness of the dingy hallway.
I pace,
foot in front of foot,
trying to place myself in another place, another time.
Like on the beach,
young,
sunshine on my skin,
worn out from a good swim
back when I was not afraid.
Where is any beauty left in the world at all?
Can this damaged heart and mind
ever find a place in time
to live and breathe again?...
