Nobody is good enough anymore,
Everything is better than ever before.
This precious moment does not last
this is why we live in the past-
it is all we know
about where not to go.
We only truly learn
the hard way
We earn
every scar,
and the right to say
Not today.
Nobody is without destiny
Everything else is merely amenity.
A choice,
a sound, a voice
that once resonated
in the cool damp dawn
now dissipated
after so many new moons,
long gone.
Something inside you has grown-
You were always on your own-
We should get to know
our own shadow
when the sun is out
casting doubt.
