I have seen it all
Said no one, ever
If they’re honest
I hope

Gods wake me
Gods wake us all

It won’t happen
Said, everyone
Ever

We happen
We are
We will be

Make everything
Pinpoint perfection
Give life
Happen

A universe
One everything
One nothing
Whole

Every pixel of meaning
Every breath of purpose
Thoughts of time
Blown away

Nothing left to chisel
Nothing left to add
Pure beauty
Pure meaning

I know of no poem like a national anthem
One of the words spoken by many
One spoken by countless hearts as one

I hear songs sung in harmony
I hear those words on the lips of many
These songs are universally understood

A poet accepts their unsung poems with mixed emotions
A bit of sadness
A bit of relief
A bit of fear
A medley of fill in the blank emotions

In the end, we let it go
We let these words unfold
We tell a tale, we tell a fear
We tell an emotion, we tell with tears

Our work is thankless
Until we’re dead
We tell our tale
We share our bread

Euphoria is this moment
Inside this simple line
When perfection is
It just is

With all those mistakes
With nothing
With something
It’s just another action

It’s simple
It’s everything
What I see inside
I see it all

The life
This life
Our life
It’s all this moment

I sometimes wish the negative part of life did not exist
I sometimes wish we could skip it all
I would trade it all for wonder and silence
I would choose the wind at my back
In the 5 seconds it takes to care I would live
My life would be merry it would be bright
I would never see the dark only the light

If I could sit at the ocean forever
I would sit
It would be with my family and all my friends
We would swim and swim with the crabs and the fish
We would always live like today is Friday

I have a standard issue beautiful existence
Why would anyone see the dark?
Yet here we are

It’s a reality that binds us
We’re everywhere
In the trees
In the darkness
In the light
