so many years have passed
where i have been covered in
ash
and dust
burnt out from too much...
everything

so many days spent languishing
in my own confusion
decifering my broken thoughts
about nothing
i can explain

a mosaic of sunshine and melancholy
stuck together with laughter
and rain

and yet i am still
unable to breathe out of water

but today
for the first time in a millenia
i listened to the sound of the summer birds

and it didn't make me cry
