To my younger self
Let go
You don’t have to hold so tightly
You don’t have the answers
There are structures that are meant to fall
There are
Shadows of grief
And scars so deep
Even the roots are unnamed
The earth carries us
This little dot
Carry on
Carry on
When you feel less than nothing
There is a space for that
There is a quiet
Morning
To let you rest
In the coolness
All I really know
Is we will continue
Maybe we are like soldiers
Understanding we are already dead
There is no fear
Just numbness
Will you be there?
How do we live after such things?
