If Only
If only
I could color the darkness
nod and smile, understand it.
If only
I could squint and see my path
not beg
every breath to be my humane euthanasia.
If only
I could be less afraid
made of grander things
than the pebble that is my soul.
If only
I could burst the bubble I occupy,
instead of being
I could not be.
Is that an option I can have?
