      		exhale


      the sun
      "rose"
      again,
      if you could call it that, if
      the trouble lines on its face are
      still to be believed, if the dust spoken
      in the cigarette breaks between clouds still
      holds any merit, if hope is still anything
      more than just
      hope.

      I exhaled all day--
      a thousand tired moments
      pounding into the rain,
      but only managed
      to fill my lungs with
      a thousand more,
      tucking them in like
      children, blue-eyed and
      unnerved, daring god to
      take them back.
