falling out the window

peering wide-eyed through
the cracked windowpane
of scarred skin and
bloody battles

knuckles turning white
from holding too tightly
to scarlet tissues
and hourglass dreams

quickly slipping from
the windowsill
wet with the dew
of seawater tears

gazing at the warm
light now out of reach
longing for the
safety and shelter

turning away
finding joy and love
in a new world
a new reality
