Friday

Standard

stories conveyed
over days occurred
within greetings
a message to be heard
sincere appreciation
amongst plans discussed
for the new week
brings us closer
than the past

Apologies

Standard

frozen with fear
empty of voice
paralyzed from amazement

disappointment overwhelms
another chance at least
convey appreciation

regular encounters
developing acquaintances
bringing stories swapped

affection develops
through continued support
friendships growing

focus turns to one
anger boils
avoidance is key

unable to see the snapshot
showing the truth
unwelcome in this way

forever barred
plans canceled
caring remains

Is everything alright?
Where are you?
What is wrong?

insights explained
misunderstandings cleared
apologies given

come and see
revealing the truth
focus expanded to all

progression actualizes
emotions solidified
bringing moments of happiness

-Jennie Nawrocki

Away

Standard

A mind can play tricks
you may see only what you want
most pain is avoided
unless that is all you know
then it becomes a sadistic comfort
does it have to stay this way?

Good rolls around
you try and hold its existence
quickly it passes though
it was just enough
to see the misfortune you lived.

There is no going back
nor immersion of its surroundings
just the motions guiding the way
slowly gathering
pieces, materials, resources, knowledge
solidifying a base
sturdy with positive relationships
supporting initializing
the momentum of growth
outlining the course for the future.
