'Passing'




 



‘Passing’


Her 
Mind is
Fresh, the anguish
Cleared, subsided once more,
As morphine kicked in, and
Started its cruel magic.

Her
Step is
Light, she walks
Through fields of frozen
Grass, that shocks her soles,
Startles her bare soul.

She
Longs for
Warmth, and soon
The flame engulfs the
Ground beneath her feet, alights
The grass, that’s born

Anew,
And burns,
The shade of
Youth.  She feels her
Body become permeable, setting her
Free, letting her pass,

And
So she
Does, rising above
Herself, the Earth, beyond
The darkness, up, to serenity.

Up.



Live for the Love of it,
The Happy Amateur
