✨A Poem✨

Breathing through a straw

chin tilted toward

warped sunrays

the sound if life

whooshed past

in a moment

but

in the twinkle of an eye

a new life is born

✨A Poem ✨

The black curtain

draped over parts of me

that run in the background.

Sometimes the winds blow

and it covers me entirely

wiggling fingers reach toward

all the little things that bring me joy,

most likely,

it’s you.

-Saschia Jayne Johnson

✨A poem✨

Two kissing fish

flowing through the celestial stream

a golden glow

just so you know,

we’ll always be here with you.

-Saschia Jayne Johnson

There’s an art to this

to be alive

to kiss the stars with

my feet planted side by side.

Don’t ask what I sacrificed

I’d not suggest it.

But there’s an art to this

thing called living.

The clock on the wall and its incessant ticking

Dust drifting from the ceiling

It isn’t always so loud

some days the fan spins and

the breeze blows into the blue curtains

It’s not always so loud

but it is always ticking

-Saschia Jayne Johnson

✨A poem ✨

A million cliffs and

leaps into the monster’s mouth

sandwiches

under the sun

Some people don’t make it

back for sandwiches

but we’ll still be there

I don’t know if we’re supposed to be

at the edge of a cliff

making leaps

but that’s where we meet

by the sea.

✨A poem ✨

The wooden floor collects

the dust of those before me

in the cracks where

the past lives thrive

and a broom can’t reach
