I Return At Night
I return at night
from the fastidious journey
Transported me body and mind
To realms wholly unknown
I lost all hope and will to live
Walking through
Darkening clouds descend
Pelting my feeble body
with icy balls of wrath
and drowning me in grief
I return at night
Cold, wet, and miserable
Emerging from the raging tempest
outside
enter a new arena to face the tempest
inside myself
seeking little help with even less hope
I return at night
I – who see symbols in all things
take these scissors to my head
in an attempt to murder
who I was for a greater birth to come
With each snip change progresses onward
