over the years,
i've collected images
of various escapades
all thrown away
when they thought
no one was looking.
i've listened to cries
hiding beneath their
ringing laughters
and tucked those tears
away in clear bottles
for safekeeping.
i've helped mend
battered hearts
& fractured souls,
then whispered comforts
about dreams & hopes.
i have done all those and more.
and now,
i want to know
if a song can rise from
the ashes of a broken life.
