Drowning

SweepingSilverWrites

1 min read

I sputter

Water holding my insides in one hand

The other in soaked in blood

I can’t breathe

Every

Single

Breath

Is taken away



Hurts and aches

Bruises my lungs

My heart

Is

Breaking

Oh wait..?!


How good is it to be breathing again

Suddenly I am ok


But the others still see I am drowning

So I shout

Scream

Silence them

Hyperventilating

Social anxiety

Identity

This was my normal ...

Foolish Humans

I remember when they found me , cold wrapped round me - my only blanket .

My only comfort the mist

The cold .

The jeering voices .


They took me in ,relaxing my frozen bones .

That was my home .

Now years have passed .


They still feed me , need me ; love me like I love them .


All i ok ....

Need You

But darling I know longer need you .

You’ve been brave but I am braver .

I am a whole and you are a half .


We can’t rebuild this , but we can move on .

No .

I can move on and you can stay right here for me to circle back when times are tough .


Oh darling , You’ve come back , but I no longer need you ....

Be Careful Out There

SweepingSilverWrites

1 min read

His worried eyes meet hers .

“Promise?”

But she doesn’t reply .

He says it everyday.

But time melts away .

And minutes turn to years .

Mixed with their tears .

And so he says it again .


“Be careful out there “...

“Quack”

What is that noise ?!

“QuAcK!”

I open the door .


A goose that has fluffy feathers .

As white as you could ever imagine .

Standing there as the rain bounces off him , his energy is catching and -


“QUACK!”

Ok frank what is it ?

“QuAAccK!”


Fine I’ll let you -


“Quack !”


Turning on the translator …


“Helloo humans “

“I is frank “

“The only way I could say what I want is through this “

Say It

“Look, I knew I’d regret it if I didn’t say it right now !”

My voice cracked .

My words unable to come out .

Then his voice .

A shout .

“Say it !”

Then it retreats to a whisper .

“Say it”


So I do .

Tell him everything .

How it happened .

Funny How mere words can make a difference.


But they did for me .

And they can for you .

So say it ....

The Pet

SweepingSilverWrites

1 min read

The smell of musky memories .

Memories of the past that have never come to light and hope that has been there forever.

Hope ,that one day , I will find them again .


The bumpy texture of the toys he loved .

His crunch of his favourite food .

The ding ding of his bell .

He loved us .

We loved him .

I wish I could repay.





Oh the way his fur felt - how one day it grew matted .

**Until we co...
