Wishing Well
December 1, 2016
The axe forgets, the tree remembers -you'll feel the same with new septembers
the smoke cleared, it eased these trembles -you left me here, in steaming embers
I jumped, I fell -into a well -I broke down with change in a wishing well
coins clinked and chimed as my pain rhymed -wishes, lost dreams, surrounding me
the waters rose and carried me -somewhere new and somewhere clean -cleansed my wounds with morning dew, now rid of you
upstream, with a pleasant gleam -somewhere safe
repaired by grace -my secret place
