Gentle breeze, just floating by
Trying to understand why everyone says goodbye
Why no one stays to share a meal
Or recount memories of the past
Why it always hurts to love again
To face uncertain lovers’ hands
Longing to be wrapped in warmth
And kept steady by a beating heart
Bum bum, bum bum
“You are safe”
“You are worthy of love”
She tells herself as her pillow transforms into a cloud
As her broken pieces rain down on a stormy night
If only the shards of her heart could fit with another’s
To comfort her on the darkest nights
To weep for her when it’s hard to feel
Instead, she’s left to wander
To wonder
To blow like a gentle breeze in the wind
