It’s really quite simple
Birds flock together
Worms weave their way through the earth
Trees grow stronger every year
And the earth turns on its axis
The seasons blend, one in to another
And time passes
Babies are born
Children grow
Adults age
People die
One year ends
And another begins
As we cycle through the seasons repeatedly
Inhabiting the patterns of our behaviours
And I did not know
That trapped in my life
Was such a melancholic feeling
Of which I was never truly conscious
A heaviness hanging around my heart
Until I perceived it this morning
It was as if the mists of dawn
Had wrapped around my soul
And I, on this day
Became cloaked in a great sadness
It's just how I am feeling
