hazy
in a hazy dream I saw the sun setting
and a little comet in the corner of my eye
a far off wish-
everybody I love to be tucked under the blanket of earth
eager to rise in the morning,
see themselves in clovers and fresh dew
content with what they see
when we are hurt we lash out
just animals after all
when blood drips into your eyes,
you can't tell friend from foe.
and the cycle continues
some of the hardest truths to bear
are the ones borne out of love
but transformed into
control
of body, mind
avoidance.
of intimacy, friendship.
fear
of self, and others.
I am tired and I know you are too.
my wish is for you to see yourself
in everything you love
knowing in confidence
we all deserve peace.
when everything is blown away and the harsh truths get spat out. I dry my tears and look. into your bleary face. what is left but love and space?
