Any more and....

Life taught me
I can't wish away
pain and suffering
much as I would like to 
I ought to face
them squarely 
at least
bear them patiently.
And I have been....
so much so that
something pleasant
becomes a surprise
tinged by fear.
no pleasant surprises for me.
Don't ask me for anything future.
Any more of that and I
simply fold inward
until I become a speck
to be flicked off.
Just let me
be
be live.

What's going to be future...

***



Eyes gaze out
to the skies
Mind wanders
in the emptiness
Feet find themselves
on
to the sands
of a vast expanse
and I hold
on to the rough
and solid of 
times immemorial
