Katrina Kaye
when is the last time
you held sand
felt the fall
of each gradual
and wished for nothing
more than the warmth
your allowed to slip from hands
I am lingering deep
in a list of what
could have been and
relishing the simple
I have attained
I call them albas
morning songs
gibberish
they are nothing to anyone
but the melody
reminds me of a memory
yes time has passed me
forgotten my name
and kept
rolling through
like the weather
like the waves
like the pull of the moon
these things aren’t forever
despite how far they stretch
after all
there is no such thing as forever
merely here and merely now
even our breath is compulsory
do we continue the ritual and fail
or do we learn and do we go on
where does the fall take us
if not to the next season
