Fighting for so long To find the sun, To find the warmth Of a heart undivided, You almost don't realize That you stopped feeling The chill a long time ago.
Insect, You have been a source of fascination since I was a child. I followed you through tall grass and treetops trying to understand your ways. My friends grew older and became more disgusted with you as I became all the more curious. Beautiful in your simplicity and sophisticated in your diversity, the future belongs to your kind, not mine. Good luck with that.
Chill
ReplyDeleteThe chilly glares
The icy stares
The feeling of being surrounded by bears
Horns blaring
Insults flying
Trying, trying
Avoiding the eyes
Of people nearby
As you learn
How to drive
Fighting for so long
ReplyDeleteTo find the sun,
To find the warmth
Of a heart undivided,
You almost don't realize
That you stopped feeling
The chill a long time ago.
