My April heart

Too many are like mild September days-

with a meek and tender breeze and golden light:

the sun shining in far too gentle rays

out of a cloudless sky, yellow and bright.

Though beautiful these souls may be-

nothing do they know of hail and storm

Or suffocating heat, burning mercilessly-

Nor do they know the clouds that form

whole battalions of grief inside of me.

Their ignorance, surely, is the healthy norm-

my changeful, fiery heart a sort of lunacy.

My life's unstable, theirs solid and uniform.

But I'd rather be an April fool each day

than live my life in their nice, yet boring way
