Colored Locks
i leave as i came
quietly
extending my blanket
softening the edges of cold
and as i turn to view
this long path
i see the pebbles of dreams and memories
shining brightly
each with its own story to tell
whispering verse
held tightly in my chest
as i unlock
the small colored locks
each
a moment
flowing outward
