What Dies in Winter

Delia M.M. Crowley

bad feelings of yesterday

bad feelings of last year

bad feelings die in winter


his face

taste

and every single

wasted day


i am free to move on


to tomorrow

tomorrow i will move on

and then onto

the next day until

they all run out

and into each other

and into

next winter


summer

couldn't

come any faster...


when every dead thing

has thawed

and the melt

glistens

in the sun

thats when i know

what died in winter
