Work in Progress

This is just pieces of words I'm throwing together to see what it comes out to be.

I sometimes hear spirits
in the wind, asking me
are you your best friend?
But I realize that,
everyone needs to see
in shades of grey,
even if they wear
rose colored glasses.
In this world there are
various stages of grey.
How do we stray
into and out of those areas?
Without getting stuck
in the muck of the middle.
Why isn't everything black and or white?

House Cleaning

Emotions, like tides roll in and out.
Like clock work, they freeze me in my tracks
But, I can't look back
Moving forward,
trying to get to the head of the pack
top dog in the Iditarod of life.

Can't be lead around by those
diggers of buried treasure!
Still wondering,
if it's my heart that has been broken,
or my Ego that has been crushed?
Knowing it's the former, not the latter,
as my Ego would never let me cry.
Like Sting tells us, "Love can mend you,
and love can break your heart."
It's time for me to mend,
my own fences, my own heart.
I hope Mick Jagger was right when he said,
"We all need someone we can lean on."
Right now, I need to lean on ME!
