uncover me from the haze
and you will find my heart in the willows
a fragile thing that beats inside dead skin
this is where things don’t break, they bend
the willows no longer
weep oceans too wide to paint
the colors ring clearer than truth
and there is learning in their leaves
find my head tucked in the nooks of their chests
with backs turned to fear, we have grown together
but she has even more scars than i do
and she’s a home i’m finally ready to leave
my hands stretch far to gnarled roots
of who i used to be
this is where things start and end
this is where i will begin again
