Perhaps...
inspired by the 'In Eclipse' challenge
~
East to west, she trills a hopeful greeting as she
climbs into the sky, pushing off the backs of
lofty men assured they know their place, and I?
I know not where life's path is leading, but
perhaps our light is wild though fleeting, cos
she and I are surely one and the same– never afraid to be
eclipsed by shadows and healing rain.

Thank you so much for stopping by :)
I wrote this one after hearing a song called Space in My Heart by Miranda Lambert and Enrique Iglesias on the radio. It just put me in a creative mood :)

The Voyeur's Incandescent Reasoning
The woman sat nonplussed, in the Waiting Room. In a sort of daze, looking straight ahead patiently. She had already had three small breakfast's that morning and a nip of sherry, this was not unusual she would typically wait until an hour after she took her anti-depressant and was her morning routine. She was merely following instructions she assured herself, shifted slightly in her seat and feeling a little heart burn thought, maybe she should skip lunch. Dom had said to have the task done this week. She was well used to his methods and desired to get this over and done with soon. She glanced at her watch, smiled weakly at the Receptionist who was there for a moment and then gone.
