#NaHaiWriMo — neighbourhood

How long has it been?
Draw me nearer to thee
Let me look at your face

*

We keep walking
The sun sets on empty streets
We hold our breath 

#NaHaiWriMo — metal

You always forget
There is so much more to do
Straighten your spine

*

After the bones snapped
We discovered anew our strength 
Forged new connections

#NaHaiWriMo — chaos

The ground shifts
In the midst of everything 
Where is the anchor?

*

Everywhere the whispers
Tickle their way into us
Our itching ears

#NaHaiWriMo — dice

We takes our chances
Every time we speak 
Planting seeds

*

Here we are waiting 
One decision leads to another
We choose or choices are made

#NaHaiWriMo — school

Let us walk together 
As we compare all our stories 
Talking quietly 

*

I thought I was alone
In silence I reached for words
Gathered them to me
