Ode To The Fly
It feels like
The days pass faster
Than there are sunsets
For me to catch,
Because for so long
Have I strived
To chase beauty,
But endlessly I seem
To forget
That perhaps capturing it
Defeats the goal
Of experiencing it,
So now I find myself
Like a fly trapped
Between the glass
And the screen
Of the window to
Some outside world,
Doomed to burn up
In my self-generated
Heat, born from the
Friction of my struggle.
