what i'm learning i think
is to be one with my uncomfortableness
to let it engulf me
to welcome it inside me
to let the spear of uncomfortableness and aloneness/sadness
pierce my skin
enter my insides
and leave me no choice
but to become one with it in a lover's entangled embrace

lost

this world is small

you begin someplace
end at another
& realize
you end where you began

this world is small

you look, look
and look
& realize
you are still the onlooker
