it

it
was all the shit
heaped up
in a pile
that didn’t need to be
surveyed by me
or you


it
was stuff
left over
from bad places
broken relations
shattered dreams
too

 

it
was a jumble
of emotional turmoil
some exciting
others arousing
mostly disturbing
all confused

 

it
was nothing
that needed review
call for a dumpster
out with the old
in with the new

 

it
is newness
a breath of freshness
sparkling
creating
inventing
a new hue

 

it
is composure
conviction
self-confidence
and
an unwavering truth

 

it
is a beautiful day
rain rinsing gray away
the sun shines
laughter rules
accept & collect
embraces & bliss
a breath of freshness
is……………. it
