above the city
contemplating the ideation of love
drinkin brews on the skyline
cradling the universe in my palm
I'm not home but I am worldly
as this is mine

what I love about traveling
is that there is the option
an option to question life
that pondering on how forgiveness takes time
that resentment and irresponsibility
may not ever be forgiven
it is unfortunately untimely

that in all honesty,
not all can heal according
to ones hourglass

be patient
this world is all we get
there is not reset button
the chances- we get one

so if we question the potential of the world
why not question ourselves?
are we accountable?
have we already assumed our problems
our mistakes that vindicate who we are?

are we love?
do we use love as self defense instead of
a weapon as we wish?
how do we save each other knowing
that love is not a weakness
but the strength within us to reveal

our darkest secrets and our
lightest atonements
how do we tell the world that we want it?
and that we want the world to want us?

like, we the people
want the world wants us
like we
want the world.
