The Storm

With wide mind     she went
 as most behind a fake door
the insurmountable wakeness
 as we sought Mercy

But she to the trees swaying
 in the torrential storms
and licked the rain as tears
 her victory won

IF i lose you, that 
is my fear.

And i sing for Spring,
the bones of my self
ache for rebirth now.

Say it, that we all know
we wish a truth for love
as though without us 

that we could never be

  these Winds could be

as I hold this tree 
   I seek, I keep,

forever us free.
