Run along boy.

Create your own narrative,
a self-fulfilling prophecy,
whatever is necessary
to justify yourself.

It's enough for me to know
you're wrong.

Embers fall off a fire

Onto my worn down coat

It doesn't matter anyway
For I just want to watch the smoke

Fly up high into the sky

Where it'll dance with the stars

Get lost in the night wind,
Just like our memoirs

Time moves by with the fireflies

Mingling about through the night

One day I'll find that we'll all die

What’s the point of continuing along,

If in the end,

All swans will sing their final song.

Oh why,

I want to be so many people.

I want to see so many people.

I can’t decide,

I can’t decide,

Soon I’d think I’d rather die.

Do we all just exist in time?

We’re at the top now,

Can you see? The sea?

It’s pulling us in, like the earths gravity.

Let’s throw down a rock

To see the fall

How heavy it is, as it goes down

Don’t you hear that? It’s a call.

There’s a shaking of trees,

The push of the wind,

Do you feel the breeze?

As we fall in.

Far away we are
But at least when we look up
We see the same sky
Experimenting with Haikus

Everyone from here might be millions of miles away, but I take comfort from the fact that we all see the same sky when we look up. We might have a different perspective or opinion on it, but it is the same sky.

You're watching TV
While you scroll on your phone

I'm sitting in the corner,
All alone.

I'm wondering why
You have no subtitles on,

And why these characters
Keep singing some song.

I ask you what you're shows about

You turn around and tell me to
Shut my mouth.
