you know how silent i am?
my god i barely make a sound
at times a careless whisper
to remind you of the profound
my silence is loud
please don’t cover your ears
i want you to hear what it’s done to me
after all of these years
i will not forsake you
i come in peace
so below, as above
the shark is drowning
but can’t he swim?
the human is choking
but can’t he breath?
the fire and the flood
but didn’t he leave?
our lives are a series of moments
that only exist within themselves
outside of themselves, they bear no weight
and still we sink beneath them, call it fate
we control the tides, and the shore
where it starts, where it ends
we are life
we are moments
ever changing and fleeting
only within ourselves, will we ever find meaning
