life is so good. everything comes back around.

 "Some cause happiness wherever they go; Others, whenever they go."

--Oscar Wilde

I didn't realize this until now. It's been two years since I married dick, over a year since we divorced. I hope he is doing well. I hope he has found that cop job he's always desired. I hope he's moving forward in life.

'Don't look back unless you plan on going that way."

Well

 There's a well
Far deep in the ground
In it, I fell
Into a slumber so sound

Beautiful and dark
The stones are chilled and cold
Untouchable and stark
With cracks of stories untold

Why can't I get out?
Ensnared in this hard wall
Hollow, empty shouts
How did I even fall?

Struggling to be free
Remaining futile and pained
Dreams of what life could be
Yet this facade leaves me drained

I can't stay here
Though I dream to find a way
Among feelings so unclear
Dwelling night and day

I need to break through
And see what brought me here
Are you honest and true?
Or simply a mirage, I fear

The sunshine peaks in
From the consuming endless black
I see a subtle grin
And then a turned back.
