I reach for a dawn that no longer exists
its light buried beneath old rain
yesterday drips through my hands
a silence too heavy to carry
still I wait
for a tomorrow that forgot my name
hoping memory will learn
how to begin again

the creek carried my laughter away
and I forgot how to chase it
I reach for it in sleep
but my hands are grown things now
no longer shaped for wonder

you were a room once—
my laughter took off its shoes and sat down
