Oil Painting by Jane H. Johann c.1982

the sugar sweet strawberry red sunset

fired burnt crimson images into my soul

delving deep into the recesses of my mind

as the emotions spilled out coffee conversations

the deafening silence between us

with the intent to resolve the unresolvable

what happens when one comes to an impasse

when view of the other ceases to exist

when the ego takes over and only resists

where does the imagination take one’s heart

where no compromise can be reached

how painful is that brick wall

concussion dead center in the middle of disbelief

smiling and talking one day

and then it disappears in a flash

the strawberry red sunset transforms

the heart into a bleeding gash
