I couldn’t stand the blinds being down.
I opened them up and saw the moon on the ground.
Moon on the snow, the trees, and the wall.
Stars shone through the ice like a crystal ball.
I pulled in my focus to something more real,
the rosery that hangs from my windowsill.
I ached that He helps me find my way out;
I was silent, though, with not one yell or shout.
I cried just enough to cool myself down,
but if I cry anymore, I’m afraid I might drown.
