I am a single daisy
lingering in a blue vase
and I hold

the room

the sunlight
finds my
face

and I no
longer
can sleep

how rude
is the
sun

to force
me
to wake

a rowdy
child
tugging at me

so I can
come and play
with them

And over time,
My pen stopped bleeding
But my heart didn't

'What is the greatest tragedy of life?'
The young girl asked curiously

'Forgetting' whispered the old lady

I am here
I am here
I am here

and that is enough.

new day
old feeling
same life

head dizzy as I lay
am I truly being?
in this world of strife

hold my weight
as I try to figure out
what has come of me

I ask if this is my fate
you're filled with doubt
I try to agree
