i'm on my way

i lean into

this wind, hand deeps into

the pockets

of my long coat,

buttoned

to the top, collar up.

i trudge forward,

hat on,

scarf wrapped tightly

around my neck,

eyes down,

i keep going, keep going.

one foot after the other.

this storm

is nothing.

nothing at all.

let the snow fall,

let the wind blow.

i've been there, i've

done this before.

i've always seen the light

at the end

of every

dark tunnel.

just leave the light on,

i'll be there soon.

it won't be long before

i'm at your door.
