My weather app said it was going to be warmer today.

Now it says tomorrow.

I lie in bed sip the latte my beloved made me. Furnace hums. Sun streams in through the open blinds of one of our bedroom windows.

Daylight savings time rises later. I want to stay under the covers.

The muse urges me to open my eyes and rise.

Flow Like The River
By Louise Gallagher


Trapped
behind eyes
closed
tight
fear
holds onto
nothing
but the darkness.

Closed off 
I sit
eyes shut
holding back 
tears
I dare not release
fearful
they will flow 
like the river
never-ending.

Lost,
I swallow
my fear
and open my eyes

dam
bursts
tears fall
and I am set free
to flow
like the river
into Love
never-ending.
