Weathered Bench

*Photo is my own*

time stretches 
like a fragile thread 
as I sit alone 
on this weathered bench
in these moments 
of suspended existence
I find myself caught 
between the past and present
the ticking of the clock 
becomes a resounding echo 
amplifying the echoes 
of my thoughts 
each second 
a drop in the hourglass
falls with a measured cadence
and I wait patiently 
for the arrival of that someone 
who promises 
to breathe life into my silence

  1. Wow! So love this!! Love the “in between” poems!! Love those and the magic and fantasy that can happen between the tics and tocs (my favorite place to be). Bellissimo, My Dear, Bellissimo!!! 😊😁💖💕🌹
