Spring
I am folding in
to this new skin, but my heart knows not
where to begin
sometimes I think I've lost it
when this bed, it holds me hostage
my patience begins to fray
and I begin
to drift away
when I haven't left my house
in days
but I know
these woods, still filled with snow
will burst and blossom come springtime's breath
and the life within me
has never left
I know
the warm and glowy springtime bliss
will melt away
this emptiness
and bliss is all
that will be left
within this heart, once left bereft
to this new skin, but my heart knows not
where to begin
sometimes I think I've lost it
when this bed, it holds me hostage
my patience begins to fray
and I begin
to drift away
when I haven't left my house
in days
but I know
these woods, still filled with snow
will burst and blossom come springtime's breath
and the life within me
has never left
I know
the warm and glowy springtime bliss
will melt away
this emptiness
and bliss is all
that will be left
within this heart, once left bereft
