In a dark place
My heart hid away,
The shadows in my mind
Had clouded,
A prison for my soul
I couldn't see,
Not a sound
Came through,
Placed it all
In a room,
And lightly
Shut the door,
The pain
Only reality,
Everyday
Just minutes,
On a very loud clock
Ticking,
The essence
Of life a black and white
Reel played before me,
Smile of misery
Dance and tune,
Sadder than me
Only the dead,
But a few words
Did me well,
The key holder
Came, angel
And set me free
Closure arrived
And with it
A new sense
Of peace,
All that was broken
The pieces
Of that past
Had come
Together,
Honey for glue,
Sweet
Familiarity
Of a time
Trivialities
Were but
The greenest
Of grass
Colored glass
All roses
Thorns lost
Forgiveness
From fresh dirt
On my grave
Will sprout
A promise of
Love...
