We know it is here

Sometimes hard, tumbling down things that’s put

Soft sometimes, caressing your hair

Giving chills under your ear lobes

It’s there always yet we never know

Shows up sometimes, sometimes kept low-key

Feels like constant, therefore least bothered.

I feel it’s broken

Listen you will learn, harken like never before

You will know it’s broken breath

Can we plaster it and give it some time?

To let it heal and fix the deep scars

That we cared, never before.

To let it join and hear it blowing constantly

With paper plasters of sugary words.

Let’s glue it together, the million pieces

Hopefully joining the broken wind.
