Unfinished Temples

20 October 2020

Leaves that rise better
than roots
make no sound when 
they fall.
Once, Earth was created
for my 
karma to heal yet
in this 
silence of waiting rooms,
the sun 
rises inside my temple.
I am 
a molecule away from
an unfinished 
symphony that keeps impersonating
my frustration
because my 
energy cannot
hear itself think like 
swallowing set symbols of 
lungs on 
dehydrated pages missing you.
