NaPoWriMo 4-4-2014

One day,
all the dreams
in the house
the night before
had been so hard

that
in the morning
we rose to find
old years suspended
in the still air
of the living room.

You have decisions to make
when you wake up
finding that.

Everyone knows
it sounds humorous,
or comfortable,
or improbable,

But when it actually happens
to you
it is

A deep lake of silence.
A chain of acres
that children will
pull behind them
across all of their days.
