These Messy footsteps
Crawl the streets we used to frolic
In the light of the city
Somehow
They were messier before,
Only, in a joyous fashion,
making it far less dismal
Than now.
They called it fate.
Is it still fate?
Small pieces
Beg into the void-
I never see you again.
Most of me.
Waits.

We'z Walking on a Path Ruled By Numbers
This road has felt endless, yet limited; every step tracked. Inching away along this path, I feel trapped. Confined. Left to this narrow passage that may one day amount to something greater. Time is not a concept. Only distance. From start to finish, I laugh and cry and attempt to convince myself that this is worth it. I cannot stray. I must keep going. Every step etched, is a step taken, is measured as more than before. I cannot even recall how I got here. Maybe I don’t even really exist. Just another tick marking off a perceived presence. Of what though? I am just another line drawn. Nothing more, nothing less.
