I wish someone could take a flashlight
And illuminate
This void
So that maybe
I could see
That this
This isn’t a void at all
This is a storage unit

Words
Have
So much power
You should need
A license
To use them

Wherever I go
I am always chasing the sun
Always chasing happiness

No matter how far I stretch my hands

It’s always
just
a little bit
Out of reach

I will leave soon
And this,
This will no longer be home.
But I will be okay,
Not everything is changing.
The sun will be the same.
And the moon,
It will shine just as brightly.
And the stars,
The stars
They
Won’t
Ever
Fade

You broke me into a thousand little pieces,
Because you would be happy with just one.
And now that you have it
You will keep it forever,
In a blue wooden box under your bed.

That smile on your face will now stay permanent,
Because you know that
Without it I can never be whole.
And you like your things
Just a little bit broken.

Red fur
Black long socks
Almost floating
Through a palace of trees
Golden eyes gleaming
In the velvet night
Perfectly
Quiet
