you have spent years

flowering

this weakness

for you

-the petals are wilting

slowly coming into being.

the becoming is slow. and often. you will not feel the happening. happening to you. but it is there. in the sigh of the day. and the laughter of the night. brewing.

i am often the cause
of my own suffering
and that carries
its own pain

going

today

was made of

broken hopes

and questioned dreams.

and

yet

there is a sun

left

to set.

and the chance

to try again.

sunrise.

tales

I have heard tales

where the beast

is loved

by the beauty.

and the pain

is taken

by the winds

in the eyes.

and the hard

is made

soft

by the soft.

the way(s) –

we can hope –

we will be saved.
