Featured Poem
There's a six to eight year age gap between my older siblings and I. It made for some awkward evenings when I couldn't understand what the fighting was about or why it was even necessary. This poem is a reflection on that.
As the Rain Came

Seeing those I loved and who loved,
Locked in conflict,
The origins of which, I knew not.
But I watched,
As the rain came down.

Hearing angry voices, heated whispers,
In the blackest nights.
That I heard, they knew not.
But I listened,
As the rain came down.

Learning of raw feelings and wounds,
The growing spite,
That I understood, they knew not.
But I felt it,
As the rain came down.

Time passed,
As did some I loved,

Leaving scars,
--Thick, raw, tender scars--
The which of, they knew not.
But I still think of them,
Still know the pain,
And I feel it,
As the rain comes down.

I pray they’re now at peace,
Resting in the warmth of peace.
That I miss them, they may know not.
But I do. 
And I feel their hearts,
Each time the rain comes down.
