As My Window Shakes at 1:00am

4/21/2018

 
This April wind howls,
fierce and unrelenting,
Scratching dust from the earth,
Stripping the asphalt blank
from woeful memories
and disappointment
 
I wish it could do the same
for my heart
That I could breathe in its
keen edges and
exhale, feeling polished-
no-
forgiven-
no-
chaste
 
That I could inhale such
force and magnitude
it would render
me pristine,
beautiful

“In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer. And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back.”-Albert Camus
