always asking
will they
or won't they
fearful tearful
#quaking in her dreams
nightmares
turn into extremes
will she
or won't she
be able to suspend
an uncomfortable life
filled with #polarity

it never felt like the right time
always waiting in the outskirts
declining opportunities
lingering in the background
letting others move to the front of the line
better this than being in the center
of bullies #polarity
in wait of pouncing on her parade

The medication didn’t cure anything, but it did alleviate the sharpness of the illness, giving the patient a brief hush from the screaming pain.

farewell to summer
deadheading
the hydrangeas
trouble in paradise brewing
the hear no evil
see no evil
speak no evil caldron
once again heating up
#percolating magic potions
that evaporate merciless #sins
as dark secrets rematerialize
