Crisp September breeze
Carries memories
From too many years past.
Feelings unprocessed,
Echoes of uncertainty.
Promises left unkept,
Dreams and hopes
Scattered to the four winds.
And wounds untended,
Deep, ugly, gnarled.
Something in the chill,
Hauled in on the wind,
Makes the hurt return
Like an old fracture
That aches before a storm.

Crisp September breeze
Carries memories
From too many years past.
Feelings unprocessed,
Echoes of uncertainty.
Promises left unkept,
Dreams and hopes
Scattered to the four winds.
And wounds untended,
Deep, ugly, gnarled.
Something in the chill,
Hauled in on the wind,
Makes the hurt return
Like an old fracture
That aches before a storm.
There it is again- that funny feeling.
