Equinox Approaching

I still get lost in the memories
That linger in the dark corners of my mind
The last call when you know you should leave
The helplessness blues that haunt me
A song or scent
Triggering synapses
That leave more fissures
In my already swollen heart
The heaviness of this Winter
That nearly destroyed me
Is finally leaving my body
Allowing my lungs to breathe
Opening my eyes to see
The beauty
That is
Illuminated
Around me
Grasping for balance
The promise of renewal
That Spring brings
And trying to forgive
So I can finally be free.
