Horizon

It is not about the wounds that inhibit us. 

But rather, the laughter that we inhabit together. 

It is true that sometimes the only treatment-

Is not some medicine. 

It is instead relieving them of their poisonous body.

So that instead of sinking-

You shall be lifted by stepping stones. 

Into the horizon you will go. 

A horizon that is more kind than I can be for you.
