my teeth chatter
but not from the cold
I am warm
I am still
I am living for the first time
in this comfortable nighttime
I don't have to care
for a second
what is there to care about?
I stare into the trees
and the outside
I am barely safe from
but safe all the same
I am breathing
I am crying
just because it feels good
just because I FEEL at all
lightning in a bottle
I am so still
your music is playing softly and yet it's so present
I am so alive
I don't understand
but I understand some
and that's
GOOD ENOUGH
at least for right now
I am living at last
