Catharsis
the pearly night---
moving into dawn now
catches me
half-awake at the window
breathing in tangy air
and scent of golden leaves
that twirl as quickly as they fall...
from the sidewalk
created for prancing around,
a dove whispers from across the lane
gazing back at me
and knowing I will place both feet
on grounded earth,
locking the eroding door behind me
to release my cathartic world
of unsolved past hurts:
and it's here where love will come
just moments within my dream
for I believe this soul is cleansed,
or else there isn't any reason to take a new leap.
