AFTER THE LAST GLACIER IS GONE
My heart is so blue
it is a glacier.
Every time I approach,
It recedes deeper
and deeper.
Carving a path
down the mountain
side
into my very being
Once, I was nestled high
cradled in your arms.
And now I am
sinking
lower
and
lower.
U-shaped valleys of Pain
left behind
in the ruin.
Hoping uncertainty will settle
and a lake will form.
Where troubles are pushed aside
and the lake reveals the sky above.
In the destruction
beauty surround
life thriving
once again
after the last
glacier is gone.
A heart beats
deeper, clearer and more pure
like the waters
that once fed it.
Thump—Thump—Thump!!
Carving a path
down the mountain
side
into my very being
The GeoGrApHy
of the heart
is more V A S T
than that of the Globe.
May my pulse
be in ryhthm
with yours
wherever you go
and whatever you do.
Why are you so far away?
I love you
even after the last
glacier is gone.
