Sitting knees crossed

I got everything I need

Right here

All around me

Like a shadow

To my body

A paper trail

Free flowing

Behind me

S’all free

Incredibly

Near

And never far.

Sitting on the edge of my tongue

Feel it in my fingertips

Light slips between

The layers of everything

I need

Sitting

Knees crossed

Beside me.
