On the Inside – May 2, 2024

Open the doors

The air is a little cooler

Creeping up

Wrapping and wrapping

Asleep…

Or am I just now awake

How long has it been

Looking backwards/Or forwards

What’s the difference

Both frowned upon

One must, to understand

where we’ve been

And where we are going

Stop floating

And picking apart

Each day

Each beat

Each blink

Everything we’ve touched

I want to feel

Not just inertia

But the tingle that jolts inside my veins

Splitting seconds into aliveness

I can’t help but go inward

Pages turn, and turn

They keep turning…
