I am startled
by the shocking familiarity
a lover alone
without love,
but here in this place,
everything matters
reality weighs heavily,
chokes us all
as we wake
from ever-ironic dreams
the attainable is so desirable,
but much too elusive to chase
opaque doubts
and transparent aspirations
slow the clarity
it isn't so simple,
but sometimes it is,
it's high time
we began to live
Author notes
one line is inspired by a Frou Frou song.
So how was it?
