i don't know

how long

        if every loss
        leaves a hole
        how long before
        there's not enough
              left
        to hold together?

how are you

okay.

Y'ever have one of those days/weeks/lifetimes when you are feeling so stressed and overwhelmed and alone that it kind of plateaus into some sort of bizarre false zen and everything is just seriously really FINE?  Yeah.  About that.

moar words?

When you realize you've accidentally done the first two days of a challenge without meaning to.  Albeit in sort of the wrong way...

Lighthouse

Equinox

digging one hand

fingers deep 

down 

past soil

anchored in bedrock

trying not to shift

fault lines

other reaching

grasping for sky

I'll be your

p e n d u l u m

if you'll just

let me balance

day 5

#5daysoferos, final day ☺
