Please Come Back Tomorrow

Energy. None. Everything. Stuck.

Nothing. Moving. No. Kinetic.

Can’t. See. Excessive. Muck.

Gray. Cold. Lonely. Pathetic.

//

Tiny light. Coming near.

I feel. Ice shrinking.

Floating light. Come here.

Need it. I’m sinking.

//

Array of clouds. Starts to glow.

Graveyard of trees. Turns to green.

Pair of wings. Melts the snow.

The slushy ground. Becomes more clean.

//

Hi, I haven’t seen you here before.

Glad we won’t have any more storms.

Thanks for clearing up all the hoar.

Being near you makes me feel warm.

//

Now we can do whatever we want together.

Run around in the grass, swim laps around the lake,

Whatever you want to do in the nice weather.

//

You can come closer. I don’t bite.

Why are you backing away?

I need you to keep this place bright.

No, don’t leave me to freeze, please, stay!

//

Array of clouds. Starts to grow.

The clean ground. Turns to slush.

Pair of wings. Vanishes in snow.

Field of trees. No longer lush.

//

I feel. Water freezing.

Floating light. Not clear.

Icy walls. Keep squeezing.

Tiny light. Stay here.

//

Can’t. See. Excessive. Muck.

Nothing. Moving. No. Kinetic.

Energy. None. Everything. Stuck.

Gray. Cold. Lonely. Pathetic.
