things saved

The best things
saved for all this
                 forever
are neglected
in dust on the shelves

not much
living
in this
living room

maybe its a warm blanket
for the dark
there under all the other crap
that life throws
on top and in front
of them

maybe they are screaming inside
or just as silent as my ideas
that got set back in safe places
for a later they're still waiting for

strong shelves
just stand and hold
but a ground that just is
sometimes starts to just be

mystery, caring and any excitement
all less
than the sound
that light winds drive

may the rain
grow and destroy
at good will
what needs either

The best things
saved for all this
                 forever
getting lost
and now that time looks more worn
through my eyes
I start to see all the not
      to be

till then
its time to start digging
digging out of all these years
into a different now
in which I can smile more

and make these
best things
more of now
not just potential
