stagnant skies and waters by define freedom
my transitions rival insanity most of the time
but time is money and change is good and
good is relative yet family and those close friends is/are a constant
state of being, state of existence, realization
of who you are, who you’re not, but not
without the existence of love because
without that feeling or that emotion
or that intangible or that tangible state
we call “love”, i’d never realize the truth and
you’d never realize the difference and
we’d never grow up, apart, or between
and we’d hate without knowing hate,
we’d shiver without knowing warmth,
we’d move without knowing direction,
and we’d surely sit stagnant in the murky waters
under a crescent moon and never realize the beauty
we beheld there while we were together there
or never would we realize our wins because
we’d be glimpsing our lives from one perspective
only sipping our luck through one straw
never cherishing the nourishing dregs/dreads
at the bottom of our empty vessels so
i’m crazy to crave alternatives but willing to
bet on this game because it’s tempting to me to
want change and purely coincidental that i
created this fantasy without you beside me
without you near me, without you with me
somewhere in my heart, or in my head,
in my imagining
–you were sure of us as
we are sure of the stars that birthed our dreams
but it should be said again while i am under this
dark blanket of unmoving, unrippling sky and cloud that
transitions rival insanity and sanity surely must be a constant war.
