After the Last Glacier is Gone

AFTER THE LAST GLACIER IS GONE

My heart is so blue
it is a glacier.
Every time I approach,
It recedes deeper
and deeper.

Carving a path
down the mountain
side
into my very being

Once, I was nestled high
cradled in your arms.
And now I am
sinking
lower
and
lower.

U-shaped valleys of Pain
left behind
in the ruin.

Hoping uncertainty will settle
and a lake will form.
Where troubles are pushed aside
and the lake reveals the sky above.

In the destruction
beauty surround
life thriving
once again
after the last
glacier is gone.

A heart beats
deeper, clearer and more pure
like the waters
that once fed it.

Thump—Thump—Thump!!

Carving a path
down the mountain
side
into my very being

The GeoGrApHy
of the heart
is more V A S T
than that of the Globe.

May my pulse
be in ryhthm
with yours
wherever you go
and whatever you do.

Why are you so far away?

I love you
even after the last
glacier is gone.
