the dark night of the soul

sometimes you have to walk
the thoughts
out of you.
in the cold rain,
the wind.
it makes no difference,
you feel nothing
of the weather.
you've done this before.
one step
after another into the long
dark night
of your soul.
the heat of you blooms
out of your mouth,
your eyes are wet.
your legs are forever strong
as is your heart,
as you move forward.
