Dec 2014
Spring flower spray blossoms
Shower me with joy!
Open ye, wide sky windows
To let my shadows fly away!

I have run from you
a thousand miles.

And yet you never left
to let me be alone
in my forgetfulness.

Have I known for so long
that you shall not return?

And yet I cannot free myself
from the dark corners
wherein I hide.

I have loved you
I am sure.

So many times,
not knowing how long
before the mist will cloud you.

How deep can I hide
from this fear of knowing
that you left because
I could not love you?
