A POEM A DAY 151

SHOW ME HOW

Show me how to see
Through this blinding rain
Show me how to breathe
Through this paralyzing pain
My heart
She's taken a heavy blow
She's been knocked out 
A Tyson T.K.O.
In a fight
Without a ref
My soul is tired
Bereaved and bereft
I just need
A moment's rest
To catch my breath
To laugh in jest
To feel upon my skin
The softness of the wind
A little reprieve
So my heart can mend
From this wound
That cuts like a knife
This wound that may well
Take my life
