Begin Again
It was a sudden turn
That didn’t make sense
Into the darkest forest
The region most dense
Where darkness reins
And fear remains
Where gray clouds
Bring cold, heavy rains
We were shattered and lost
Together but alone
Blind leading blind
Feeling naked and prone
No direction feels right
No destination in sight
Shadows closing in
No one cares of our plight
Pale sun rising
Our bones painfully cold
Blank stares at empty faces
Eyes sallow, gray and old
We come to each other
To speak of a brother
Lost far too soon
And pray for his mother
Time will keep moving
A never ending crawl
As we begin again
Summer into Fall
Watchful towards Spring
Winters cold bling
Crystalized tears
Slowly, gently, melting
