Spring Awakening
Beyond the walls of my confinement,
Where darkness has pulled the blinds
And fear slinks 'round corners and binds me; Spring has sprung in all her glory.
Dancing colours and vibrant greens flutter in the breeze.
Damp earth awakens, the scent heavenly.
My parched soul threatens to break free;
To run naked through the velvet leaves;
To feel the newness brush against me,
Bringing me new life and infusing my weakened bones
With renewed strength and vitality.
I breathe in the bliss of this freshness
Fill my lungs with the tangy sweetness
And feel myself begin to bloom
Fortifying me, repairing me,
So that I too, can be whole and free again.
