2015 - Today


A pit inside me \

i need the sun on my skin \

fogged the view within.


Working with my hands \

my daily coconut thoughts \

working with my brain.


A race with no end \

chasing tails from the black screen \

you will die hungry.


What would you give up \

to look up and see the stars \

why would you miss out?


Look at the moon light /

Venus absorbing sunshine /

Orbiting in time.


Memories flash back /

the pictures are such contrast /

in time paints the past.


Rainfall in the day /

Sunshine wicks it all away /

Mud path paved with clay.


This is only now /

we wait for our own good /

we will assume form.


My light, always shine /

the path is dark and worth it /

this will also pass.


We found each other /

the cycle continues on /

a spark lights the way.


Put my hands in dirt /

pull out clay from planet earth /

forge my time in place.


And when winter comes /

then the existential dread sets /

here I go again.
