night

October 21, 2024 - 244 words

the dark gives rest to the mind flanking freedom these empty streets let you really think freeing possibilities i could be anything silhouettes hold silent mysteries a warm gust pushing across the bushes and three rabbits hiding from the movements

the sky reflects what is underneath and the glaring exploding sky drops below and leaves us to be my home is in the sky that can't be reached

where everybody is anything but we are okay with that where i can be alone anywhere and tethered to the abyss i can drift

through one to another i drift into the arms of the grass and i am her;

i am the star and the planet i am everything that eats and is eaten i am the same but i am not i am distinct but i return i will return and i will live i will live this small time as the thing that i am and i will feel what can be felt because this is my time and i will have it to its fullest and i will love i will love everything that i am i love this world i love you and i love everything you are of the sky and the worms and the trees and my arms are not big enough to hold it all i am taking this with me and i won't forget i will return to the earth and it will remember

i am alive
