Blue 12/09/15

Yesterday fell 
Beneath dark waters
And raging storms.
The sun drowned
In black. There,
On the rocky 
Coast, I sat
Contemplating the
Droplets of moisture
Falling upon my face.
Where does the horizon
End, between sky 
And ocean? Somewhere
Only blue, exposed
To endless light.

A Dream Deferred

It is always tomorrow
Where hope lies,
Waiting to be grabbed,
Tomorrow, the great lie.
Patience fades as
Years pass by,
There is never one day
Tomorrow is not raised.
Hope praised, and then
Runs away,
It holds us enslaved.
A dream deferred,
Just a waste.
