My Holy Day of Sadness

[emsporter]

Michele Collier - found here.
I want to give nothing
of myself today
and make a holy day
out of my sadness
and say no
to all requests
and wrap my heart
in warmth and comfort
and layered in blankets
I want to give nothing
of myself today
I want to be safe
alone and away
from the world
and all that it asks
and demands of me
I want to give nothing
of

Yes. The snow is falling quietly and this is the day I want but cannot have.
