Like A Melody

Little rays of sun

Gather into a beam of light-

Now one.

... Not seen as fondly as before,

much like a faint knock on my door.

I take it in as I take in a breath,

each appearance swift and heft.

My whole being encapsulated in joy

Briefly, before the moment I try to destroy. Me.

Each time I ploy

A miraculous comeback,

One the world has never seen.

I wonder what that even truly means. To Me.

Even so, I focus on these moments;

Moments soft and gentle, caressing me...

Like A Melody.

———

I let the sounds of the peaceful

fill my heart with glee,

for I am so certain and so sure

That is all I need

To return to reality, from the dispiritedness

That is me.

I open my arms welcoming it

This newfound byte of happiness

and it welcomes me, like I fit.

I'm grateful for this

and all the little happinesses.

I'm more than blessed, but in truth

There's no one who deserves this less.

Even so, I embrace it

like I've known it since birth.

Embrace it with my all

Letting it pour in and fill me whole.

Let it plant like dirt to the earth,

Let it flow like water through a valley,

Let it be a mark on my tally,

Let it dance amongst my ear drums,

Let it come and go—

Like A Melody.
