Brace For Impact

See me I’m here… right here Why won’t you see me? I wrote the most beautiful story I guess you’ll never hear it It wasn’t about you… well maybe a little about you Ok the whole damn thing I can not do this anymore Revolving around you An unbalanced moon orbiting Your rogue planet Hurtling unchecked through space Wow, I might of laid the space cliches on a bit thick But, aren’t we all cliches Running over…nope not going to say it We have all been here before Dealt with the same sh**…baggage…unresolved karma Issues Tears, sweat and blood streaking our bodies for the ones we love Isn’t that just like us humans to turn something So pure and giving Limitless without boundaries Into a token we selfishly hoard We lock it away in a box Our fear of it’s loss, paralyzing Maybe one day we’ll figure it out If not well… it won’t matter then We are such a destructive force 06/09/2022 Sponsor: Edward Ibeh This or That, Vol 12 Poetry Contest
