I want to be
just like you
living in the moment
breathing
the heavenly blue
skipping the light fantastic
weaving wonders from words
kissing understanding
and just like that
it's untrue
I can't be like you
because I dwell in the fear
of being unknown
but, I live here
in the unpromising zone
hack is stitched
as a single word
into every seam
of all the coats
I've ever worn
but I have sworn
that I'd be forever
the firefly
that lights the sky
from the warmth of my
tiny backside?
Just know....

I tried!
