duct tape
It’s okay
That some things
Are meant
To be temporary
Just as an intricate snowflake
On the sidewalk
Melts by the morning sun
The smear of dust
Across a chalkboard
Anticipates being written on
Once again
So, it waits
There is a delicate
In-between
The universe holds
A pause in the matrix
An interstellar binding
Tainted with limits
Promised with smiles
Hopes of forever
With intention
Of permanence
Helpless anticipation
Our longings since
Are lost
The possibility of forgiveness
A solitude of safety
Comfort to the past
Who yearned for this
An inscription
For a better future
Silence for today
Bloodied knuckles
Into the pavement
Cursing the world
To help me remember
Who I was
Before I found this place
These places
Don’t always make sense
They are rumbles of thunder
Echoes from wind
The feeling of longing
A house into home
Remembering
The importance
Of impermanence
Infatuation with growth
The metamorphosis
Between the newly recycled
Paradox of expectation
A lunar cycle
Of a fluorescent ocean
Expelling resiliency
And cursing declaration
That some things
May end
And That’s Okay
