fear

afraid

and far away

we watch life pass

right in front of our eyes

unable to patch up the past

we live with holes

in our shoes

in our pockets

in our hearts

a fixated focus on forgetting

tells the mind memory is more than just remembering

it is feeling

it is reliving and sitting upright

at all times

walking

wears down worries

but when you are already worn

its hard to put up with the wind

this weather

has no end

it begins

and begins

and i wonder will it ever end

again we ask

questions we dont want the answers to

afraid

so we refuse to follow

any direction other than down

the sea level

has seen you

beneath its surface

submerged like a coral reef

catching waves of grief

all other options

are cop outs

surrounded by decisions

we pick none

just sit and stare at the sun

afraid

we keep watching

life and love

a leisure's gaze tells us to stay

behind the chained fence

afraid to change and actually mean it

i wonder when this will ever end
