Laments of the Wind

I looked down
The world tinged with cold certainty
And a hint of disappointment
I have failed
The curtains laughing their silky laugh
The city lights flickering in mocking
I turned away
Scars and bone fractures might heal one day
But a stab in the heart is permanent
I stepped out
The sharp night air my only solace, tugging at me
Taking some of my burden like it has known grief
Whisk me away
Anywhere as long it is away
From the ashes and ruins of my past wrongs
Keep me safe
The winds serving as my personal cyclone
Anyone else stay away or be consumed
Give me more
The winds swirled until I'm one, too
Carrying my old grudges to another world
Let me rain
The memory forever raw and fresh
I'll never forgive, because of that fail
Hear the laments of the wind
