Zephyr

 

I stand alone now

How I arrange the facts

Will mean I’ve made a choice

Once again

 

Truth like puzzle pieces

I can fit in any place

I feel the breezes floating past me

Each breeze wanting to take me a different way

 

I reach out both hands

Concentrating on not to grasp

The breezes form into a wind

It pushes me backwards but I still stand

 

My mouth falls open;

I feel caressed by many hands

Nothing is drawn away from inside me

What I am is not overcome.
