Air filled with bird-songs
At dawn, this last day of June
T'will be winter soon
Time goes by so fast

I used to be afraid of wolves
Until I realized I am a lion

Birthed me,
nursed me,
trained me,
And most of all you loved me

to the womb that became my home for 9 months,
to the arms that never grew weary for years,
to the chest that turned my pillow for decade,
to the back that forever bended for me to find a comfort place of sleep,
and to the lap I'll never outgrow for,
I raise my fist up there in the sky to say,
Thank you
Wandered a whiff,
trailing a breeze;
an inkling waft,
a tickling tease.
Faintly familiar...
Fragrant with ease.
Perfume of past,
present to please.

Because of You-
I belong among the wild flowers
When I was young my dad used to plant wild flowers for me and my sister. We would spend hours running through them. I’ve never seen anything more beautiful.
Him
I know he is going to take my soul
He left and it's raining
Freezing on my skin
Maybe it'll wash him away?

He is in the jokes I say
And the food I eat
He's all around me

He is gone
Taken my spirit along
I'm here
Waiting for a piece of him
A feeling of him.
