Harbingers

Paralysed by this

The full weight of indecision

Heavy on my mind

Reason left behind

Drowning under a flood of memories and emotion

Sensibilities vibrate

On a fine spectrum

As harbingers of loss

Flap their wings

Like a thousand distressed

Butterflies

Sounding out the clarion call

Of freedom

Meanwhile

Somewhere far beneath the chemical storm

I sense the breath in me labouring

While encountering the deluge

Of heavy rain

As my restless heart waits

With growing anticipation

Upon the fulfilled promise

Of sunshine
