The Blank Page of Posterity
Best & worst teen years
It’s a sunny day by the water.
I face myself in a skewed after-thought.
What do I see, what do I hear?
Green water, soft-murmuring splashes
The lake offers for musing.
What will I be in future?
What will I do tomorrow?
By the success of schoolgirl dreams
I can only whisper possible scenes
That come crashing like a nightmare
Holding hostage my heart
That tries to keep up with its blood
Fusing each blank page for posterity.
What will my children think of me?
Good faith questions and comments welcome!
