Redemption, Renewal

Today, I am the wind

Whistling through the trees

A witness to the lovers

Asleep amongst the leaves

I remember the way one kissed me

I remember the way one brought me

Screaming to the surface

That I would face reality

I remember the way one swore

Her undying affection

I remember the way one covered

My sins with her perfection

Today I am the ocean

Crashing into the beach

A tryst with something foreign

For the lovers who came to know me

I remember the way one turned

These pages into memories

I remember the way one cured

The apathy that ailed me

Today, I am the heavens

Smiling, unseen

Giving back to the world what I've taken

From her muses, everything.
