chemical constraints

For once I am strong

I can watch you rest your eyes and i can feel you release a breath and i can hear you take one step...

For once I am lost

I cannot watch the stream move over the dipped edge nor can i stand next to the tree with the hanging limb and grow tall so my nose can press its force upwards...

 

I seem to know the same strength but not the same understanding of small processes that the leaves feel when they drop to the ground....

I can draw several lines without knowing the proportion but she did not know either...

The clear glass was still spinning upside down when the light was off and we are still here watching it burn for 1 million more days and nights.

We won't ever know the end.

We will never know the beginning.
