mislaidatsea Deactivated Island of lost souls (1932)
Am I alone?
Someone is sitting beside me.
I turn.
There’s no one there.
Only the reflection
of a lost soul.
“Self Portrait with a Harp” (1791) (detail) by Rose-Adélaïde Ducreux (1761-1802).
Play me a song.
Don’t get me wrong.
I love your singing voice,
But the harp is my choice.
The music soothes my sad soul
From the day taking its toll.
I need the music today.
Please sit down with me and play.
Lost in my own mind.
Thoughts trickle down in torrents,
Leaving behind my empty soul.
Frost turns my lips ice blue.
Ice freezes me in place.
Trapped in the refuse of my lonely mind.
Skin and bones.
That’s all we are.
Easy to break.
Easy to fall.
Don’t fall apart.
Keep strong.
Keep fit.
In mind,
Body,
And soul.

Clean me.
Snow on me.
Wet my hair.
Fall on my eyelids.
Drench my body.
Whiten the streets.
I welcome thee
into my heart and soul.
The moon’s calling my name.
Let it not be in vain.
I walk down the road.
My soul has been sold.
I know my life is now over
Even as I clasp the clover.
Once darkness comes to its feet,
My happy life will be beat.
It came out of the blue,
This offer to spare you.
I could do no more or less.
I love you; I must confess.
I’ll happily go to the dark side
As long as the demons abide.
Think of me; I don’t want to boast
As the one who loved you most.

The pieces.
Eyes.
Nose.
Mouth.
Ears.
Don’t add up.
They refuse to mold.
Separate pieces.
Undefined.
They need a purpose.
Unity.
A soul.

TO THE LIGHT
Bring me to the light
Where demons don’t dwell,
And colors appear to soothe my tired soul.
A rainbow of delights engulfs me.
Raindrops fall to wash my tears.
Music surrounds me in a heartbeat.
I am not alone.
Others have found this paradise.
A place to quiet the wandering beast.
Arms lift me.
Roses entomb me.
I am here at last.
I’ve made it to paradise.

Light and dark.
Our souls.
Our feelings.
Alternating.
Soaring to highs.
Falling to lows.
Heights.
Depths.
Life.
