Nuclear Winter
Once a year,
every year,
A nuclear winter in my heart,
Poisoning my every thought.
Radiation,
flames,
Burning up my every hope,
One weight more on my dark heart.
Cold,
sorrow,
Filling up all of my body,
Premonitions of the future to come.
Death...
Wait!
Can it be as it seems?
Is there yet a hope left?
Awareness,
fog.
Is she really smiling?
It must have been a fluke,
Sunshine,
oxygen.
It doesn't seem random,
Maybe she does in fact take interest.
Confusion,
shock.
Maybe is should risk it.
Would the question be too forward?
Liberation!
Life!
The nuclear winter has been lifted!
The poison,
blown wide by a wind,
The sorrow,
cleansed from the earth,
The weight,
broken by a force much stronger.
The feeling of light so sweet.
