249 am
This is all of the too much
and none of the asking stars
one arm stretched out to heaven
and a chest full of rocks
and heavy boulders
stones where no stars can be
and the sudden emptiness
brought on by not knowing who I am
and the terrifying act of
questioning those things I said I wanted
Where is the place to let the rain in
where is that heart settled peace of knowing
I am home
If you are here
I am not alone
but you being here
terrifies me still
I am a human who has
forgotten how to be one
going through the motions
until the motions wear me
(to) still(ness)
and wondering why knowing is important
when I never know enough of change
but small actions make me glimmer hope
like stars
falling
(on my head)
in the rain
Nice
"...hope/like stars/falling..." It has been a long time since I saw a shooting star. :D
