When Defrosted

I don't know who I am, Why I'm here, But that's okay; I just am. Through the winter, The winds chased me, And bit at my heels. Now, a calm breeze Comforts me. My identity echoes Back from my Beating heart On the warm deck. I'm taking deeper breaths These days; I'm fearing not The stranger's gaze. I simply close my eyes And hear My spirit's twinkle, Crystal clear. There is no loneliness Here, now. There's only sun, To show me how The simple thoughts Inside my head Caress The persevering dread. I long to taste The sweet mistake, That tricks the tired Eyes awake. I wish not worry, For my sake, But for green earth My soul to take.
