Shifting Shadows

In the depths where shadows linger long,

A heavy heart sang a melancholy song.

A soul adrift in the dark of night,

Longing for the stars, for the sliver of light.

With every breath, a burden to bear,

The weight of sadness, a constant affair.

Invisible chains, a mind confined,

Lost in the depths, a soul declined.

A world awash in shades of grey,

No hues of hope to light the way.

Amidst the crowd, a silent scream,

Lost in the echo of a shattered dream.

But within the void, a flicker, so small,

A light that pierced through the soul’s dark hall.

A gentle whisper, a hand outstretched,

A moment of solace, a heart refreshed.

Through cracks of pain, the light found space,

Guiding steps towards a better place.

With every tear shed, a burden eased,

As wounds healed, and worries ceased.

The storm within began to clear,

Whispers of hope drew ever near.

A heart, once heavy, began to lift,

With rays of joy, a soul adrift.

In life’s complex, ever-changing flow,

The seeds of joy began to sow.

Even through the darkest of night,

A glint of hope, a guiding light.

Rising from shadows, a dawn ignites,

A soul finds solace in the darkest nights.

Embracing courage, a spirit ascends,

A tale of strength as the darkness ends.

So to all who feel the dark’s embrace,

Know there’s a path to a brighter place.

In the heart’s eclipse, there’s room for the light,

A tale of resilience, a soul taking flight.

Something New: A Beautifully Savage Omen

On a cold winter morning in January 2023 while visiting my family on the Upper East in New York City, I was the first to wake up, crept quietly into the guest room bathroom and locked eyes with a tiny owl perched outside the window on the old fashioned air conditioner. We startled each other and we both froze. An owl in New York City. Just the two of us. Then suddenly the owl flew away carrying a very small dead bird and leaving behind a bloody beak and claw, body parts that would stay there for
