Colder than you think (Day 1112)


How impatiently you now attend  

where your name used to open doors 

can you bear life without 

your diamond necklaces and rings  

fingers drooping with their weight   

those were brilliant days  it’s true

precious   and unremarkable 

you see  the razor’s edge is colder 

than you think   but step outside

where white winds slice

your barren trees   and you  a blossom

struggling to bloom   might find 

strength tracing the fine silk strands 

in newly mended webs   may even 

dance to some faint music filtering 

through your fractured window panes
