Can Morning forget the violence of the Night?
For gentle dew to replace emboldened strikes
that a bird's song answers echoed screams
and glittering haze overtakes peppered smoke
Does Night whisper through the day
found in streams of pressure
empty gallons
torn paper
discarded masks
shattered glass
That Night's ***** fingers
grasping
clawing
scratching the surface of a past
carefully hidden
bleeds through pristine learned pages
to words unspoken
bandages wrapped
milk poured
least the wound bring feared change
the silvered light, a true new Morning
true dawn bursting forth in honest reconciliation
not forgetting
not forgiving
but forward
Morning and Night
pushing
but can Morning further meaning of Night

Can Morning forget the violence of the Night?
For gentle dew to replace emboldened strikes
that a bird's song answers echoed screams
and glittering haze overtakes peppered smoke
Does Night whisper through the day
found in streams of pressure
empty gallons
torn paper
discarded masks
shattered glass
That Night's ***** fingers
grasping
clawing
scratching the surface of a past
carefully hidden
bleeds through pristine learned pages
to words unspoken
bandages wrapped
milk poured
least the wound bring feared change
the silvered light, a true new Morning
true dawn bursting forth in honest reconciliation
not forgetting
not forgiving
but forward
Morning and Night
pushing
but can Morning further meaning of Night
