comfort a call away

there is something
something
bothersome
something
vexing

something in the air
that lingers around

despair
echoes
amongst the limbs

desolation
sticks
to the twigs

despondency
brushes
the bark

something
not quite right
when
light
fades
and
shadows
no longer
lay
at one’s feet

distress
controls
the day

comfort
is only
a
call away
