Feel

Today’s one of those days

That I remember

How to feel.

It’s a day of reflection,

Yet it’s a day that stands alone.

Everything comes together

In the simplest ways

And I feel again.

I walk alone in the dark,

The heavy air warming

My air-conditioned skin,

A slight breeze passing my face

And I feel again.

Immersed in my familiar music,

Forgetting the world around me,

I feel again.

Sitting alone at a diner,

Nothing but mozzarella sticks and a milkshake,

I feel again.

I’m scared to lose this feeling I’d forgotten,

But for now,

I finally feel again.
