A child wandering
a forest wilted green
disenchanted
with a heart of abandonment
where leaves covered her ears
to protect
and time froze
and her screams, muted
and the grounds were cold and hard
and touch too painful
and what seemed as though
then, the way out
was nowhere....

Why had I not noticed this sweet little waterway before
I crossed the street and never stopped to notice
Will rectify that as I usually do notice
Just for a few moments took a breath as the rain stopped
The clouds parted and the sky started to turn blue
Because of you little Brook

After years of his words
being put to rest..

I dug up a tomb of letters
embedded deep within the
foundation of my heart...

Resurfacing memories
that at best, should've
remained buried
