Blueberries Say I Love You


I've tried to be strong.
I've tried to love hard.
My spirit is exhausted by the effort.
My hope started to dim.
That darkness that says we can't be repaired
came slinking through my mind.
I found myself staring at the door.
But you wrote me a note,
spelled out in blueberries.

DON'T DOUBT MY LOVE

It was salve to my wounded heart.
My melancholy was held at bay.
The reprimanded darkness went back to his corner.
Involuntary smiles keep playing on my lips
from the memory of a handful of blueberries
that loudly said I love you.
