we spend our whole lives fearing
a future in which
we might not
even exist
tomor-

we never said goodbye
because we thought
we never had to
and one day
we may think right

As I sit here
Staring at the submit button
I think of the times that I couldn't even
Start
A wave of emotion overcomes me
As I remember where
I once
Started
The clock ticks midnight
The link
Closes
And I am left
In a confused state
Of nostalgia for what once
Was

They say
Endure the Darkness
To shine under the Light
But what if I
Shine in the Dark?
