"It Became Tomorrow..."

It does that sometime - ya know?

“It Became Tomorrow…”

 

Good morning beautiful… 

seems the wee early mornings mark our

…transitions…

into the persons we become.

Became.

Are…

 

For some - it's called stress -

stress …over… day-to-day;

over life's sway;

over self-defined singularities;

over all the ouchies faced, held in,

let out, dealt and undealt;

our own “apneas” -

that “bit-of-gravy”, life’s “broth”,

midnought tremors, minds’ whispers,

our own chilled whimpers…

wish-full echoes… empty arms…

 

And ya know - for some its tears -

never endings…

fears - the shakes that haunt,

the ‘MARES -

the sights, the sounds we …live… with

survive within,

as the unending echoes surround

around and ‘round and ‘round…

 

And yet -

Some …watch as sunrise paints our lives.

Watch as coffee mysts rise and grow

and grow into the transparencies of our worlds.

 

Sometimes we wander,

wander our night’s days

looking …pausing… looking,

searching

‘til pausing with yet another ghostlet -

anothers’ understanding

-      of a what

-      of a who

-      a HOW

continuing

has become to be.

 

Remembering who we thought we were

touching on our self’s dreams

esteems… wishing to hope again…

dream …again,

knowing nothing is ever as simple -

or free -

or …free…

nothing.

 

Some times it’s a wonder -

that we emotionally reach

CAN EVEN emotionally reach …out

(and in)

-      that we believe

-      that we hope

-      that the whispers fill us with

heat and heart

-      that we touch and ARE touched …again.

-      that we ARE our SELVES …again.

-      That we CAN ever BE …again.

 

…and then it becomes

…tomorrow… again.

 

“Good morning Beautiful…”

 

Chris

this brought me a moment back in time, I sat with it for a moment and gathered it in again, rolled a few tears...good morning beautiful......

This reminds me a bit of the old 'beat' poetry. 'spontaneous bop' I'd love to hear this one read aloud.

Hello Chris, what do we have here?? You seemed to have captured so many emotions and feelings here.. looking for the lonliness?? Is it there too? but, what a reflection of the thoughts that can meander through our minds in a single day..To bring me hope of tomorrow. Well done, I enjoyed reading :-)

[Chris]

It's very nice "seeing" you here... too few "look" for loneliness but sooooo very many find it.

[Susan 🦋]

Ah, I was thinking ...prehaps in the lonliness...we find hope of tomorrow

[Chris]

I don't want to "argue" that one... hope is all many have.

[Susan 🦋]

agree completely

Its amazing how large of a swing in outlook can be accorded us in 24 hours. I go to sleep thinking about work and it plagues me until morning when I write a list, and the list is never as daunting as my dreams. Stopping to realize we are still living, breathing and able feel never seems to happen and then you read writing like this and realize that we need to take the small frame off of the big picture and take a long hard look. Amazing thoughts here.

[‘Thoughts In Time..]

And the beauty of the heart remain if nothing else stsys the same- the deep hollow ache of all the wondering thoughts and questions waiting to be answered the beauty of a knowing heart hold fast to what can be- just beautiful🌹

[Neville]

[Chris]

They say shyt happens - for a reason don't they? And then again it really doesn't take ANY reason at all sometimes.
