it rose
slowly at first
as i took it in and marveled in its beauty, it changed
metamorphosis, they called it
heard the wind through the leaves in my back garden way before you noticed the storm coming
and then it was graceful
beautiful
everything i ever needed compressed into one tiny experience
am i reduced to only this?
if so, i am
tiny (and
meaningless)
have you ever
felt
tiny
whilst staring at the stars
2 AM rants in your brain told you to learn and watch and learn and listen
i guess i was too busy looking at them
and i didn't notice us crashing down
but the sun came up
and i may not have slept at all, but i sure as hell could see what would happen
so i stared, waiting for beauty, waiting for tragic endings to come, to define me, to become me
like i was in a movie
and in the end
all it did was burn
