Cycle to Life

I tuck my love in my wings

My wings I wrap around my heart

My heart; it bleeds, it beats

Beats against the walls of my chest

My chest is becoming unbearably tight

Tight spaces; I cram myself into them to hide

To hide from the loneliness that corrodes my mind

My mind is a chaotic machine that jumbles my thoughts

My thoughts I find racing and spinning and causing confusion

Confusion overwhelms me as I try to find my space

Space; that vast darkness with which my life is inextricably intertwined

Intertwined; my love and pain

Pain follows me through shadows and light

Light exposes my wounds and finally they can begin healing

Healing songs I sing to myself in hushed whispers

Whispers caress my ears, brought in by gentle breezes

Breezes remind me that I have wings and it is time to fly

Fly into the arms of a lover who will keep me always

Always I tuck my love in my wings, for it will keep me alive

Alive; I am full of life
