it's been a while since i've written poetry,
and somehow i've found my way back,
sitting on my bed at 3:11 AM
while my entire county is in shelter-in-place,
evidence of tears on my cheeks,
heartbreaking short films in my YouTube history,
and my mind is scouring the earth
for the reason to live,
for a reason to live,
for any reasons to live.
