I did
but forgot 
on purpose 
or accident 
knowing that 
the thermals
would lift
and take 
me to 
the place 
even though 
I had 
no idea 
trust does 

Socks sheets 
and T
I see
dark divots
and dimples 
greedy against 
the light 
reflecting and
reminding me 
that I 
am timid 
at times 
mainly night 

In morning 
this hour
so still
just breath
and some 
distant knock
of silence 
doing its 
simple job 
and I
the same 

I am 
no hero 
medals don’t 
adorn chest
wounds unseen 
but I 
just shoulder 
the scars
behind my
hollow smile 
wishing such 
wasn’t so 

It almost happened 
and yet didn’t 
and despite that 
sitting here now 
I am wondering 
did I dodge 
or did I 
miss my exit 
it’s always interesting 
I think this 
having gone past
what might’ve been 
it lingering there 
back behind me
