Hey hunnies! Leap into spring with this cathartic poem from a GL reader just like you. Leave your critiques in the comments, cuties!

 

Spring Cleaning


No more chilly air,
No more ice and snow,
Because winter is over,
Bring on the spring glow.

During those hard months,
The months that you weren't here,
I couldn't get you out of my head,
I saw your face through every tear

That rolled down my face
Because there weren't any hands to embrace

Me. But now is the time for new desires,
And maybe a whole new start
Where I don't feel so sad,
About being so far apart.

I vow to give this new beginning
A whole different meaning.
I shall, of my love life,
Do a little spring cleaning.

As I watch the flowers open up,
And feel the sun's warm kiss on my skin,
I realize that that is like my heart,
Unsealing and rehealing within.

This is a time for fresh starts,
And as the world starts greening,
I look into my heart,

And do a little spring cleaning.
