Time, just give it time they said
Let the thoughts drop in and
Watch the pain ripple out
Until the rebounding wave
Washes over you with joy instead
Rebirth, echoes forth inside my head
Gasping for breath
In a tussle of sheets
From a moonlit ending
Which was suppos'd to be
An escape from dread
I walked the parapet
Of hushed discord
Watching the birds
Chisel the masonry
With beaks of blood
Sowing new scars
As they carried off shards
To encase something
Better off left for dead
Wings drift through misty froth
Fading off into the Janus sun
Half with
The radiant one
The rest
The wounded star
