Muddled Waters

Conscience clear,
even circumspect,
no hidden motives,
just a desire for closeness,
an intimacy only two
can share, and yet
even as you approach
I feel my waters
clouding, doubts
scurrying across
surfaces…

Permission to write, paint, and imagine are the gifts I gave myself when chronic illness hit - a fair exchange: being for doing. Relevance is an attitude. Humour essential. View all posts by VJ

I love the slight hint of something that’s not all as it seems just gently ebbing underneath, the water that’s not so clear. Beautifully written.x

  Thanks – we are never fully aware of the currents that run beneath.
