The Bell Tolls: A Poem



the knot tightens around my chest
their footfalls recede into the distance
They tell me it’ll be okay
the light lances down and
Banishes my darkness, my silence 
my solace for a moment, blossoms
They tell me it’ll be okay
and they return, arms laden 
with gifts, and tears, and apologies
They tell me it’ll be okay
