i’ll keep my window open

-Kay

i wish

i had the power

to change it all,

opening my window

mother nature

hears my call

hot

to mild

than cold,

she alters the perception

of all of us out of control

yet as the wind

blows through my pain

she whispers her secrets

in vain

as she bares no special powers

the earth turns not to her avail

she has no more control

than i or you

we must all just take it

day into night

night into storms

ask not the questions

nor expect the answers

for once we have sought what

we seek

the universe alters

changing all of which we speak of

all of which we grow accustomed

becomes nothing more than a mutter

a breeze that passes through

beyond our wise years

beyond our wildest dreams

we can not change the moment

nor the past or future

yet,

i’ll keep my window open

in hopes one day she whispers

‘this year,

something more

than the seasons

will change
