it has been a while since
my little self, hidden, felt safeโ
beyond comprehensionโs schematic structure,
deep within, where all that is
becomes understood.
where your words are felt,
where your expressions cause a meltโ
a sudden, radical acceptance.
your self-established mantle of significanceโฆ
my little self has lost its worth.
in your eyes,
it matters no more
that human I am, experiencing life
just as you do, just as it flows,
as it nears the ultimate axisโ
as winds and tides, as gravity itself.
we are alike in our search for the unfathomable,
a place of serenity,
a longing for love and security.
yet, adamant you remain in your complacency.
it would have been better to die
than to endure
your unraveling, your disarrangingโ
how your eyes burn with disregard,
exposing your innermost self,
enticing a taste for the misunderstood.
deep within, where all that isโyour little selfโ
remains hidden, untouched by obligation,
playing eternityโs game,
choosing to be too lazy to care.
