dusty worn out libraries

haven’t been able to write much today. lots to say, three entries begun, just can’t seem to complete them right now.

I run to where you will not be
Amongst the shelves of poetry
The dusty worn out libraries
That live inside my mind

I’m here but hope you will not see
I hide from you and look for me
Where silence and the voice agree
For once I understand

Have been scouring my old writing books, notepads and journals, and the journey has been facinating. Perhaps I’ll find a starting point? Perhaps I kept them to begin with because I used to think that there was something there worth not throwing out. I’ve thrown so much out.

I don’t mind looking back. Sometimes I find it more hopeful than looking forward.
