Just...Breathe

the wind blew 
through the cracked
bedroom window 
sheer curtains 
cascading freely 
dancing to 
nature's sweet 
melody 
carrying the scent 
of new beginnings 

eye's slowly open
as her heart 
has long awaited 
this very moment 
her pulse races 
as excitement fills 
her chest 
and liberty
flows through 
her veins 

night's darkness 
fills the room 
as the plush blankets 
surround her cozily 
bringing comfort 
from this 
long season's chill

the moon remains 
hidden 
behind the large 
sleeping willow tree 
which brings forth 
a calming serenity 
which only her 
heart can feel & see 
as it has been her 
very own melody 
her nightly lullaby 
to bring a peaceful 
slumber 
as she knew wishing 
stars, 
although never seen 
birthed from this very thing 

the heart of nature's call 
brings her to her feet
mesmerized by 
what she can now see
as the flow of curtains 
brush her feet 
tears spill out of her eyes
as the dust of the
newly seen  moon 
fills her lungs 
brilliant diamonds 
shine from above 
lighting up the night sky 
making her feel as though 
she can fly 

fingertips reach out
as she felt she could 
touch this brilliant 
Galaxy of stars 
a nightlight of diamonds 
a masterpiece of the heavens 
a gift from God himself 
just for her 
letting her know
************
dreams are still alive 
hope is never lost 
peace does exist 
the heart is finally free
and now she can .....
just breathe
