We caress the heavens together
-Calm-
In a trance
Lost in a sea of souls
I find you hard to miss
-familiar-
I can’t escape your pull
I flow
-not with the wind-
But with you
Bending air as I go
My whole eternity is you
A blue vastness
-too great to ignore-
From my perspective
I live for you
As there is nothing else
Quite as magnetic
-although, I’m trapped for sure-
My naivete may live on
Yet even I ponder
The slight trembling in my heart
Subconscious, or am I over?
There, a world spilling with ants
So small-
Yet visible with their feats of humanity
-I can see it so clearly now-
Where once there were only specs-
Now there lay a myriad of wonders
Right before me
-the haze clearing-
My confidence
often a victim of gravity-
So steady hands always pulled me up
Right on cloud nine
I no longer feel the softness of those palms-
Once my ever-aiding life
-safety-
I have fallen out of your grasp
The wetness of tears
Staining my existence-
Yet clearing it all the same
I fall as the icy raindrops guide my demise
All hard and true-
I must accept my punishment
For I have lived on far too long
And know much too little
Seeping into reality-
I can feel every texture on my skin
Every imperfection on the ground
-forever taunting me-
Leaving the once continuous cycle-
Venturing into the unknown
Where-for once-
A seed may grow larger than a planter could ever provide
A wild flower-
Thriving in a sea of individuality
Forever smiling at the sky
Despite the abandonment
Although I let myself avoid the truth for years, I had to except it sometime.
Unfortunately, that happened much too late-
right when everything came crumbling down (much like a cloud-drained of it's rain).
