only now
how does your heart move? fast and furious or slow and steady. how does it move me. rhythm and rhyme against the backdrop of stolen moments. captured lives pretending cages don't confine.
why do i try to be myself when. take the night and challenge its intent. swallow the darkness. lick it like ice cream melting down your wrist. sweet and sticky and so satisfying.
mark your pages with footnotes about. as if they can give source. make sense of how. fill my life with something real. something i can truly believe. hold your breath and take your chance on this. in my heart there is no tomorrow. only now.
