words, fragments,
pieces spilled with ink and paper and thoughts and all that we make.
tinny, echoing,
long forgotten in the din of chatter and love and all that we crave.

the secrets
of the universe are not ours to keep.
they come, fleeting, they stay for a moment.

They leave.

The machines
of the universe are ours to use.
we write, we sing, we listen, we cry, we laugh, we

we
in the pages of this manuscript
in the notes of this melody
we are forever.
And when the secrets pay us a long-due visit
maybe we can listen, we can read
even if for just a few moments

time
for a tale
as old as time,
they say

a tale
of love
and time
and life
and dark
and all that
falls
within.

and ebbs

and fades away

of you.

enjoy it

while it

lasts
inspired while talking w a friend

sorry

I haven't met you yet.

sorry

that you will lose me

sorry

that you aren't real
I'll be gone, before I can ever meet you.

jump off the

roof

i am no longer
