Life is so busy
Time rushes by in a blink- eyes shut for a moment- and you miss it
I breathe faster
My heart beating-thump, thump, thump
My lips move constantly
Spewing out bits of worthless information
Not food for my soul
No warmth for my heart
It is just time
Rushing, moving, sinking, ticking
I am so busy
And for what?  I cannot say
I miss writing so much that I sit here with tears burning my eyes-right now
With no words to come out....yet I yearn to write
I long to write.....
So I do
Meaningless, harmless, frivolous words
and it feels so good
Letting them flow
To empty my mind
Not caring who reads them
grasping to this moment where I stop
I stop and I breathe
Slowly
My lips part- yet nothing is spoken
My canvas is blank- my moment is still
and I write
