Crying

Spattered on flat top, scattered tear drop

Splashed, dried and cradled in dust

Memories fortified, forgotten and lost upon a dirty floor walked by many

A picked up penny

One step beyond worthless and held with warmth to be spent and saved

Better to be given away and tasted 

Bitter, sweet, fallen and wasted

Reality's salty, wet and painful fears

...washed away

Dreaming

Closed eyes upon sunshine and a head full of light

I'm awake and living in the back of my mind

A place once dark...now glowing

It's not pretty nor showing

Truthful...maybe

But walking through I'm steady

Unobstructed in the messy room

I'll find my way

Today!
