of whether they are meant to be here,
now,
wading through the water

Timeless.

“Whenever I think
this life, these choices, this path
is mine alone
My spiritual, karmic, generational inheritance
swells in me
telling me
there is no such thing as
Tabula Rasa”

“And somewhere deep inside my childhood
is another childhood
that belongs to someone else.
I find this very difficult to accept.
That I do not own time.
Or place,
or even feeling.
That nothing is as malleable as memory.”

you come home
lay your head against my shoulder

“The Muse does not arrive at my convenience,
nor does she come when called.
She seeps softly through the cracks while I brush my teeth at night.
When my limbs are heavy,
my eyelids droop,
and I cannot possibly write another word.”

born for this
Of this

“One morning, you will wake up
And the ocean will be calm
You will shed all of those other skins
And step into the water, fresh and new”

“I want to sit on the middle of the living room floor in a ratty old nightgown with lanky hair, weeping into yesterday’s Chinese takeaway
to pretend I’m five and make a pillow fort under the dining table
to run into the woods and scream until I have no voice
to lie in bed all day doing nothing
And for you to love me
just as fiercely
just as sweetly
as when you say you’re proud of me”
