Today I will blanket the world

With words

I will send my best

And my worst

I am feeling darkness

Flutter in the noon day sun

I am feeling depression dance

Into the gentle, hot breeze

I will blanket the world

With words

Crawling into dark spaces

Lonely places

I will use my words as salve

Convincing myself

All will be fine

Someday, soon

I will blanket the world

With hope and warmth

Bundled up in words

of hope
