Frostbitten, I moved on cheerfully
Secure but slipping hastened to Halifax
Chapped and chipper, on my own cognizance
Left at the fork in the road
Found a job I hated, long weekends carbon dated
Up there with worst regrets nothing can be undone
Lacked any conscience I moved so fast a blizzard
Tearing through the open plains
One high pitched weekday, a pain ran through my spine
Sunk in around nine and forced me to the mat
Glued to the ground with massive painful resolution
A part of me melded with the floorboard
My doctor my best friend, called frequently I never spent
More than a moment alone in this loud place
Caught a strong young artist feeding muses with a cursed heart
Save your pity for the next world
I had to I returned, vacation undeserved
Who can escape the pond's calm surface
My own reflection, eyes frozen no direction
Chances are we’re done here
