Pilgram

Slow and softly in her summer dress

She twirls her hair around

Her velvet fingers so plain



In her head she questions her existence

Like a wandering pilgrim

Searching for something safe



While the cars all pass below

Her high-rise window, she escapes

Into a dream he left inside her head

Children laughing as she tucks them in

To a dream he left inside her head



On a dusty shelf the books still stand

So ridged with their backbones

There may not even be printing



With the answers still so far away

She questions to herself

Is this even life that she’s be living



Inside a dream

Inside a leaf still budding

There’s a strength possessed

In merely knowing that

The best days are still coming
