Challenge the wind to a boxing match
And be winded after each fall
Compete with the sea in a slow front crawl
Then trip over your sea legs in a sudden squall
Accept the inevitable
Know when a fight is won

Me
That word; it’s poisonous to us
“It’s not you, it’s me.”
“That’s so me.”
“He hurt me.”
Me
I don’t know what to do with that word
I don’t know why I feel that way about
That word
Me
It’s something we say every day
It’s something we feel every day
It’s something we worry about all day
Me
It’s the problem we all have
It’s the problem none of us can fix until
We hit rock bottom and then that’s all we have left
Me
“Me and you.”
“It’s selfish of me.”
“It’s difficult for me to...”
it’s someone I’m stuck with
It’s someone I don’t want to know so well
It’s someone I want others to get to know
Me

the loneliest people

gravitate towards big cities
crowded streets, family you never had
human warmth once lacked
filling up your field view
so you can't see
the emptiness
you hide
