This poem is dedicated to my sister, Charlie.
The soul behind the face is trembling
although the face remains still.
The heart pounds out requests
for compassion, for tenderness,
for rememberance.
Twisters of thought race
along pearls of tissue
creating confusion,
inviting fear and destruction,
igniting candles at both ends.
Only brief repose,
a moment of sanity,
before alternate thought patterns
take control,
and the storm rages.
In this soul there is always two
and the uncertainty of which one.
So the soul trembles,
and the face remains still.
