I sometimes
sit.
Letting my
mind play.
I'll look in
on it,
but I'll take
a back seat.
The mind
like a child,
yearns to learn and grow.
Flourishing like a flower
in a meadow of dusty grey,
bringing back the colour,
to the landscape below.
I'll sit.
Writing the things it
says,
innocent nonsense
makes no sense
or so it seems.
I'll often sit,
whilst
my mind wanders
aimlessly.
Climbing trees,
feeling unafraid
in the spring breeze.
He explores,
as I sit behind closed doors.
But every now and then
I'll peek in
and listen to the words
that pour free.
Writing them down,
with this pen
I always carry with me.
I'll only catch
bits and pieces.
Lines littered
here and there,
fragments of memories.
Floating
to grab from the air.
I'll place them carefully
on the pristine page,
scratching my scrawled handwriting.
Then I'll look down
and realise the words
were giving me
a map away from the cold,
into the warming hug of your soul.
