Life day #2 November chapbook challenge (ready to start / never ready

To lose my mind
In this whirlwind,
of years

It seems life has laid,
its velvet cape on me
Smooth and seamless
Dark and concealing

All regrets flow in streams
Narrow and unrelenting
Movement of time,
pushing it forward

Until they begin to breach,
at the dam
I am never ready

    Pamela, I also am enjoying your PAD posts. I love especially "all regrets fall in steams." Such wonderful poetic language in this poem!
