hair

sometimes i wonder

sometime i wonder if i am holding on

the tips of your hair,

the only living thing thats keeping it on your head

 

is that me?

is everything ive ever lived with, for, dead?

 

you don't feel your hair being alive,

you only feel it when something is tugging on it

we sometimes forget that its even there,

that were even alive, until that pull

the pull that separates death from pain

pain from life

 

we're holding on by a strand.
