Rummaging!
Sweeping out caverns
Chasms
Cracks
Cavities
Burrows
Slithering!
Forcing light –
to break into hollows
Pits
Shafts
Mysterious tunnels
Collecting –
all unspoken jots,
cowering in the abyss.
Escaping absurdity –
puffing winds flailing,
out of my lungs.
My lungs –
without bars,
able to breathe.
Released from dread –
of losing my breath again.
Inhale
Exhale
Collapse
Expand
Drawn into everlasting folds,
freedom and air.
New worlds
Renewed eyes
A heart able to love
A heart able to love back
Decades of merriment
Waiting to laugh –
my shadow who helped me,
to feel my skin for the first time… again.
From a pit stop in Georgia, will reply to comments soon!
Love this…..it is always darkest before the dawn…..
