Will you still love me when the lights go down
the long way of saying ‘don’t let go’
Have you ever wanted to be unearthed
To feel the ties cut
The floating, rising
You are weightless
A blue balloon long forgotten
You are just a speck now
How small,
How insignificant,
How quiet,
A speck of dust in the tail of a comet
You are one out of
A million million particles
Matter moving across the galaxy
I wonder,
If the picture in the textbook would seem missing
Without you
The tiniest of pixels, absent
If you had just let go
Left out of print
A thought,
An idea,
A seed never planted,
If we just went back in time
To before we’d even be considered a part of existence
Would you still find me
Even after I’d ceased to exist until
I’ve been defibrillated back into life
If it would have all been reset
A new story, a new author, every page
A new world of possibilities
Would it be possible
For you to find me
Would you
Find me
