Beneath the Dirt

by CassieAugust 1, 2020

I was buried.

Trapped in my own darkness,

watching slivers of light come and go,

too disoriented and tired to chase them.

Suddenly,

the dirt fell away from my eyes;

realizations became understanding

and the light didn’t seem so far away.

For the first time,

it was easy to stand up

and reach toward the sun.

Trapped Inside

by CassieNovember 16, 2019

Sometimes

your head and your heart are full

with memories and faces, words and hopes and dreams

but when you sit down to write

or call a friend to talk

your mouth and your fingers

are empty
