abandoned playgrounds

discarded kites cemented on trees and abandoned playgrounds with broken swings must have been brothers in another life with a mother who wasn't theirs and a father who wasn't home or were they calamitous lovers the sun, and the moon only to realise one is inferior; sun is a star too or or did they trade their lives for love did they ever meet again? someone is certainly exceeding me and im certainly falling behind were we, vulgar strangers in our forgone lives? indifferent because our similarities didn't echo i don't know about you but i must have been a madman roaming around with a longing to be found can a universe apart bring you together if you're meant to be?

This is so evocative and heartfelt, so deeply moving: i love the lines “ or were they calamitous lovers the sun, and the moon only to realise one is inferior; sun is a star too or ” love that! And also how descriptive this is! And how soulful to end this with a question that readers would feel. Pleasure reading this. Sending you light
