Light

Maybe there’s a moment

Maybe there’s a chance

Maybe there’s an open road

Where you can

Drive to rest

——

I know you’ve been here before

I know you watched all the leaves

Let go

A silent pain

Finally relieved

Quiet like poetry

Behind closed eyes

——-

And if I am that broken

Just sweep me to the side

I will come back

In the winter

With the snow and ice

After the mud and rain

When everything is new

——-

And maybe even I

Won’t recognise myself

Maybe

I won’t remember

This pain

This lonely

——

Maybe

There is a moment

Maybe

There is a chance

Early in the morning

When the light is just right

The mountains let go

Of the trees

And all of their bleeding hearts

Change colour

A silent pain

Finally relieved

Quiet like poetry

I write

Behind my closed eyes
