14. What Not to Ask & Drops


What Not to Ask


Are you OK?

How are you doing?

What's wrong?

What’s making you so sad?

Did you take your medicine?

Is it me?

Did I do something?

Can I do something?

Can you write it down?

Did you eat?

Do you need to eat?

Do you just need a good cry?

Do you need to meditate?

Are you going crazy on me?

What can I do?

Do you want me to leave you alone?

Are you OK?



Depression doesn't give answers.

(Journal Entry, October 2018)



Drops


Mist

Mystical

Gray and blue

Wrapped like Cellophane

Around branches

And Rising up

From the almost asphalt

Enclosing morning

In this eerie hush

Clothing the road

In a cape of

Silken drops


~ Cheryl Murfin, on the Camino de Santiago
