LET IN THE SUN

[image error]

I don’t like the way the wind

Has been shaking this house

Empty and cold a place

I constructed a life time ago

The creaking

Once a lullaby

Now sounds like screams

I can’t sleep

I can’t think

It’s the house telling me

To get out, go away, move on

And some days

I just sit unable to move

Not even able

To find my way to the window

Too dark to find the doors

I’ve opened a hundred times

This house breathes in my sorrow

Absorbs all my heartbreak

And here I sit again

Letting all the memories flow

I whisper my apologies

Letting my tears fall once and for all

And the house grew silent, peaceful

Just as every door opened

And all the curtains parted

Finally letting in the sun
