Curtains
of Despair
I
feel like drapery on a Victorian window,
Velvety
heavy and downy dark, hems dragging the floor.
I
can’t reach the sunlight though I know
Brightness
is just beyond the towering oak.
What
I want is to be a curtain again.
Can
I become so if I release all fears and doubts?
I
want to billow and beat against restraining wood,
To
escape the casement.
I
want to be unrestricted and light, supple with grace;
Live
as a gauzy eggshell panel that hides nothing,
But exposes
all, as does the windowpane.
I
want to flow and flutter with ease of a prancing dancer on pink toes;
I
want to frolic in freedom and flap on vibrating air.
Let
the breeze blow!
Release my fabric and let me dance in the trembling
wind.

To everything there is a season...
It's funny how we all want sunshine and light in our lives all the time...
When things feel grim we run around trying to cheer ourselves up and wondering why we are feeling blue.
I went to a healer once who told me that everything has it's season...and we should embrace the gray days as much as the sun-filled ones.
I'm worried about you Tom.
Running out of adrenaline can really cause a crash.
You've been pushing so hard and for so long.
If you didn't feel like a heavy velvet curtain I think something with would be wrong.
Or perhaps you just meant this as a story.
In which case...
D'oh.
Awesome imagery and writing as always!
