[Calann]: 135.Poetry.Aurora

Birds sing
   hear
 the joyous serenade
echoing in
         the treetops

   wake
sad girl
    with eyes puffy
  and red-rimmed
        hiding beneath the blanket

taste the world
   on your tongue
  smell the rain
       in clear morning air
reach out and touch the sun

wake
  mundane princess
 fallen into deep slumber
        of unspeakable hurt
   and too many broken promises

rise up
  drawing inner light around you
    as a protective curtain
 burn the memories in candle flames
but never hide the curving signs
