Self

Self

In winters cold I found you
lost too long among the seasons
thin cold crystal dawn you arrived
frost drawn breath revealed you.

Our parting of ways now healed
belie the part of me I have denied
your face changed by the years
my past and present self now healed

Hello David. At times the two parts of myself are in harmony, writing often brings that about. Stephen.
