No Need to Be Strong

I don't need new things
I need re-inventing which
My sister deems impossible 

My friend saw her ex do.
Reinvent: overnight / as if
No distance existed 

Between a full moon and the new
Overnight, blanket of a trillion snowflakes

Covered up spots but
Dull coverage won't fix my face.
I don't possess your kind of beauty 

The pulsating kind
I have birds nesting in my hair
And moths dimming the light

You cannot swish them away
They keep coming back
Which would have left me

Tied once more 
Only my mornings
Reinvented the air, the road, the love

began defrosting
The half-truths, the cobwebs, the muck.
And what my heart has held

Rose never to be boxed again
What / who is for me
Is for me
