Sometimes

Sometimes
when everything feels big
and towering around you.
When the light is dim and

darkness
is all I seem to be able to know. The sadness
closes
my eyes for me. Shielding
from the horror that depression
brings
in
from the scraps of death
of it's heart.

Forever Books

Here's the thing about long books:
when you're reading them you go
yes, yes, keep going
Keep going until the spindles of forever
wrap itself around your heart to make it beat just a little bit faster
until the words swirl in your mind and all you know
all you can feel are the words
of this single book.
but here's the other thing, you want to know
what happens?
who happens?
how does their story end?
but again, there is the forever tapping on your window
and you welcome them
