----

today she needs
the white sheets
a fresh start
something for
the heart

if i said i wanted to start over
throw out this longtime visitor (fear)
and let the courage in

would you love her then?

lost in daydreams and imagination
because reality is abrupt and lonely
hanging lights, glittering snow
rhapsody of remembrance
tears before sleeping
(breathe before leaping,
breathe if you must,
but please)
leap anyway

wait though we may,
the time is coming.
i pray i am strong enough.
