invernal

the steady spring rain
reminds me of where I’ve been
head down hands in pockets coat buttoned
the clouds are thick and dark
like mother nature smothering
me with a giant pillow—
I am gasping for breath
then suddenly I can see the light as you
rip the sky open with your lightning
let the thunder crash and make
cracks in the firmament
let prayers fly high like
shards from shattered minds
and broken hearts and
punch enough holes in heaven
to leave it bleeding…
as I learn to breath again.
