Phil Mason Poems

Are you back?
Seems in a way you are.
I can't see you, I can't touch you,
but you're here
...

ANOTHER DAY

Almost every morning since you vanished into my memories
I hear again from you...
...

My compulsion leaks out of my soul everyday.
Waiting like Pavlov's dog each moment for some little treat to feed my desire.
Simple two word texts are my treats.
Saying little and only suggesting,
...

Cancer progresses
Bad news, expensive news
Feel fine, not fine.
...

Depression

A grey day
No sun breaks the sky.
...

11-16-16. Dulcinea

I sat with you today
For the first time in six weeks.
...

Iiving in confusion, living in uncertainty...
Drifting in and out of puzzles.

Where do we exist
...

Trying to sort out the day.4 hours waiting with nothing while 'software' was slopped off to my jeep....
manufacturer mandate....
I read...
I thought too much...
...

Again The Silence

Again the silence
And it echoes through my shattered soul like a thunderstorm
...

Memories woven loosely together as in a dream....
Scattered across my soul in movement, stillness and silence
No focus, no direction and yet overflowing with
A pain as new as the morning and as old as the oceans.
