stand still.

I am like this,
like that

it is hard to be what I fear -
change

I am fickle and fain when things remain

i love this quote:

the water sustains me without even trying
the water can't drown me, I'm done
with my dying

have you always been there -
yes, you have, I know

and now you are leaving
for better things to come for you -

I should have said good luck,
goodbye -
I was too ashamed

because

I never said hello to you
in the first place

you don't own the things you know

not immune, but blind and used to
what your habits do to you.

two bodies
parallel
one is lost
the other dwells

one sees the other
and watches, invisibly
but there's no sense
in plea
because neither of them
can break free

from the roots
of this old tree.

One has loved, though,
endlessly,
has watched the other,
helplessly.
